Coach · for iPhone
Always at your pace.
The running plan that aims at your race and adapts every day: to the runs you do, the ones you miss, and how you feel.
Coming soon to the App Store. First, a beta for people who train with Studio Cavour360. The app is currently in Italian.
Adapts every day
Every run, done or missed, changes the next ones.
Always tells you why
Every change comes with the reason, the before and the after.
Paces from your runs
Threshold, zones and race prediction calculated on you.
From zero to the marathon
From run-walk to 42 km, with or without a race.
Continuous adaptation
Every run changes the next.
You run, the plan updates itself. Coach compares every run with the one it planned and decides how to go on: nothing to fix by hand.
- Missed a session? It gets made up, or let go if making it up would mean piling up fatigue.
- Harder than planned? The next ones get lighter.
- End of the week. Coach looks at how many km you actually ran and decides whether to grow or hold.
Explained, never unpredictable
It changes only when it should. And tells you why.
Every change comes with the reason, in plain words, and with the before and the after. The past is never touched, today's session doesn't change behind your back, and new paces start from the third day.
If the coach moves a missed session and you'd rather not make it up, you can undo it: you have the last word. Only the changes that protect you, like those for pain or illness, stay in place.
Your engine
Paces made for you. Taken from your runs.
Coach works out your threshold pace from your races, your tests and your best efforts. Every pace in the plan comes from it, from easy runs to intervals, and so does your race prediction.
Running faster than expected? It notices, and your paces rise with you.
Getting started
Even if today you can't run 500 metres.
You start by alternating running and walking. Every two completed sessions you move up a step, until your running minutes become thirty, non-stop.
of running and 2′ of walking, 8 times
of running and 1′30″ of walking, 5 times
of running and 1′ of walking, 3 times
of running and 1′ of walking, 2 times
of running, non-stop
Don't know your paces yet? In the first days a test measures them. You choose which.
5 minutes all out
As far as you can in five minutes. Short, and fine even if you've just started.
5 km time trial
Your best time over five kilometres, on a flat course.
Real life
Life happens. It's in the plan.
Can't make it today.
Move the session to another day, or skip it. Coach takes care of the rest.
I'll do it today.
Couldn't make it yesterday? Make it up today, with one tap.
Busy week.
The key session and the long run stay; the easy runs get shorter.
On a break.
Holiday or work: days without running and, when you're back, a gradual restart.
After an injury.
Run-walk first, then two weeks without speed work.
Always one run short?
If you skip one run three weeks in a row, Coach suggests a plan built on the runs you actually do.
How you feel
Thirty seconds. They decide today's session.
Energy, legs, mood, calm and two questions: any pain? Feeling unwell? Coach also reads resting heart rate, heart rate variability and sleep from Apple Health.
If something's off it lightens the session, or stops you. And restarts when you feel better.
Connections
Works with the watch you already have.
Runs arrive by themselves: from Apple Health, so from almost any watch, and directly from Strava and COROS. Plan sessions go to your Apple Watch with one tap.

Who it's for
From your first step to the marathon.
Starting from zero
Run-walk, up to thirty minutes non-stop.
First race
A 5K or a 10K, with a plan that starts from where you are.
Half marathon
Long runs, threshold and race pace, week after week.
Marathon
Volume that grows carefully, then the taper before the start.
No race
Twelve-week blocks, with a test to measure your progress.
After a break
A gradual comeback, no rush.
Over 50
A more careful progression, week after week.
Short on time
Three to six runs a week: you choose, the plan adjusts.
virtual runners put to the test before launch, across twelve profiles: from people who can't run 500 metres to 2:05 marathoners. Every week of every plan was checked automatically.
Science, not magic
Every decision has a rule. Every rule, a reason.
adaptation rulesProgression, recovery, deloads, racing: each one written down and checkable.
session typesFrom easy runs to hill repeats, from tests to pre-race sharpening.
chapters of sports sciencePhysiology, zones, periodisation, safety: the ground the rules are built on.
No black boxes: the coach's logic is a set of clear rules, drawn from the sports science literature, that always decide the same way.
