dlsacks Posted November 18, 2015 Report Share Posted November 18, 2015 My question applies to the half-marathon app. I've noticed that by the end of the app, it trains you to do intervals of 4-minute runs and 1-minute walks. This is exactly what I want to do! However, because I run slowly, I doubt I'll finish a half-marathon in the number intervals the app directs you to do. So, my question is, if I have more distance to complete, how to I get the app to continue some more intervals (before the cool-down period)? Thanks!

Azatol Posted November 18, 2015 Report Share Posted November 18, 2015 I've not messed with the App(I took my training program upon myself after finishing C25K) but if you learn to run 9-10 miles you'l be able to run a half marathon. Most training programs don't train the full distance. 9-10 for a half and 20-21 for a full. I ran my half when i was only up to 8 miles.

dlsacks Posted November 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2015 Thanks Azatol, However, I think you didn't understand my question. My goal is to run/walk the half-marathon with intervals of 4-min runs, 1-min walks. (which is what the app trains you to do) I have no intention of running the whole thing. My issue is that I would not finish the half-marathon by the end of the last interval and want to know how to get the app to continue with more intervals until I complete 13.1 miles.

Unfortunately I don't believe there is functionality within the Zenlabs apps but I've not looked at the Half M one to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeshi Posted November 19, 2015 Report Share Posted November 19, 2015 dlsacks, I would repeat it. After finishing the session, start it again. When the app asks if you want to overwrite the saved data, tap 'yes.' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the app asks if you want to overwrite the saved data, tap 'yes.' I think the issue would be, when you restart, your first interval would be a 5 minute warmup walk which is probably undesirable mid marathon. I just checked Google Play and there are tons of "Interval timer" apps available. I'd assume the same of the Apple App Store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The interval app sounds like a good idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
