About

Pace is a modern Couch-to-5K running app for iPhone that takes complete beginners from zero running to a 5K in 9 weeks, then keeps going with three follow-on plans for 10K, faster 5K times, and weekly maintenance. It includes four trainer voices that cue your intervals, automatic music ducking, Apple Health sync, streaks, shareable progress cards, and a custom workout builder.

Built solo by an indie iOS developer who was frustrated that the most popular Couch-to-5K apps hadn't been meaningfully updated in over a decade. Pace is $7.99 one-time — no subscription, no ads, no tracking — with the full 9-week beginner plan free forever.
