COMING SOONHow it works
Your goal, current fitness, how many days you can run. BasicRunner builds your plan from that — no guessing, no generic templates.
After each run, message what happened — on WhatsApp or Telegram. "Done 5K in 31 mins." "Knee feeling tight." "Skipped today." The coach tracks all of it.
Running too hard too often? Coach adjusts. Three skips in a row? Coach pulls back. It responds to how you're actually doing.
From the first runners
I built this because I kept falling off my running routine after years of running consistently. A human coach was $150 a month. I needed something that would message me — not wait for me to open an app.
I've tried three different running apps. All of them needed me to open the app. This one messages me the night before. That's the difference.
I told it my knee was sore. It didn't just say "rest more." It actually lightened my next two runs and checked in the following day. Felt like a real coach.
The easy runs are actually easy. That sounds obvious but every other plan had me running too hard and burning out by week 3. This one keeps me in check.
I skipped four days in a row because of work travel. Expected judgment. Got a message saying "no worries, here's a lighter week to ease back in." Stayed on track.
I'm a 52-year-old getting back into running. Was worried it would be built for 25-year-olds. It asked the right questions and gave me a plan that actually matched where I am.
