Scratch that last comment.... OK, so my stupidity of putting time in hour slot instead of minute field. Ugh. Thanks to prompt follow up by the developer - Peter - got me straight. Working fine now. Overall well done and simple interface (OK, once you know hours from minutes…). Paces that are calculated are within ranges of other apps and online calculators. Ranges are too wide at the slow run end. Almost 1:30 spread for an easy run as well as recovery run. I have a long background in coaching, competing and in the science of running so though this is a good tool, it's only as good as some others. But, good guide especially for someone who is self-coached and wants a better idea of better workout pacing. This would be very well worth picking up. Sorry about that first post!

Always crashing. This app is fantastic, when it isn’t crashing immediately after being opened...which is 90% of the time on my iPad Pro.

Go to the next level. If you're like me, a runner for years who just runs the same pace on every run day after day, this is a great app to take you to the next level. This app takes the guesswork out of training. Not only does it help me run my fast days at the right pace. It also helped me realize my easy days were too fast, and by making my easy days easier, I'm able to rest without taking a day off. Great app.

Must have app. As a coach for adult athletes as well as high school and middle school kids having a portable app that allows you to calculate workout times on the fly is extremely valuable. I use the McMillan Pace Calculator for most of my workout time goals, yet sometimes I need to have them "adjusted" when the athelet(s) aren't "feeling it" that day. I also use the mobile app for my own training. Extremely helpful and a great tool for a weekend warrior looking ot get better, a serious athlete who wants specific workout paces daily, or a coach who coaches different levels of abilities. Downlaod now!

Great tool for Coaching. This is my favorite timing ap!

Great Training Aid. Really helpful in providing focus for training. Recommended paces are just right. Training for a marathon and this app is awesome. Helped me BQ!

Not working in my iPhone 6s. I downloaded and it opens and the close by itself immediately. It doesn’t allow me to do anything. I need help please!

App crash. Just purchased the app and it crashes upon opening. Please provide a refund. A $9.99 app and it won’t even open. This makes me hesitant of purchasing a training plan from their website. This app should not be in iTunes if it is no longer being updated or monitored by the developers or the Macmillan Staff.

App not worth the price. This app does not do everything that the online calculator does through the website. It is very limited and for what you get, there are a lot of options online.

Won't open - crashes every time. I bought this app it crashes instantly every time I attempt to open it. I am trying to use it on an iPhone 6 Plus. Hopefully this big gets fixed quickly or I will be insisting on a refund.

So helpful!. So helpful for runners and coaches from novice to elite! Quickly find out what your race goal time should be at a new distance or what pace you should for a new workout.

Great App. App is very easy to use. $5 may be a little pricey but it's worth it. Only suggestion would be to list vLT and vVO2 similar to the website.

Don't waste your money. This app is not worth $4.99. I wish I had not wasted my money, so I'm trying to save you a few bucks. Just go onto his website & get these calculations for free.

App crashes when I try to open it. I just downloaded and it crashes every time I try to open it. Can’t get app support because I can’t open the app.

Great tool for runners. This is a fantastic tool for runners of all levels looking to improve their performance. Very thorough pace information to use for the purpose of building workouts as well as target race finish times based on current or recent race performance level that you input. The layout is simple to use and it's easy to update with current race times to get updated pace zones and target finish times.

Crashed Immediately after initial install. I installed the app on my iPhone XS Max, opened it and the app immedialty crashed. I deleted it and reinstalled but it still didn't work. All other apps were shut down, still nothing. Waste of $9.99.

Fun and accurate. Fun and accurate.

Good, easy to use, but.... Very user friendly and clean look, but the killer is it doesn't have a way to describe the workouts. I would like to have the description right there because sometimes I Forget and I'd like for it to be right there for me, especially since I'm paying. For example, how long is a "long run" or the difference between stamina 800's or speed 800's?

Track Workout Refined!. If you are seeking professionally developed workout paces at your fingertips, this app is golden! McRun has made my track workouts more effective and efficient: I quickly review my Speed Workout range and off I go. Training for my next half will be a breeze with this handy tool!

Awesome app!. This is a great app and very useful.

Great pacing estimates. If you're a fan of the McMillan running calculator you'll love this app. Very easy to pull up on your iPhone to figure out how fast you should be running in a race or a specific workout. The pacing has always been spot on and especially useful when racing atypical distances as in just this past weekend when I did a 10 mile race and didn't know the proper pace... I just put in my half marathon time from last month and it offered up a pace that ended up being perfect.

DO NOT BUY - not being maintained!!!. Should have checked to see when the last update was but assumed it was still being worked on since it’s still advertised on their site. Do not buy: not updated to work well in modern phones.

Pace setting de cluttered!. After having lots of doubts about my training, I can merely open this app that accompanies the informational book, "You, Only Faster", and my training structure makes a ton more sense! I've found out I'm a combo-speedster and I am grateful for McMillan for my improvement from 97 minutes to 90 minutes for the half marathon distance. Thanks Greg!

I love this running app!. I use this app while training, establishing running goals and when I use race comparisons during my training cycle. This app is spot on, I’ve used it for 6 different PR’s and 5 BQ’s, it’s great!

Not cost effective. This app might be worth 99c, but not $4.99! The information and calculations it does are readily available elsewhere. I can not recommend it.

Simple and super useful. When you switch from one race distance to another it always feels like a crap shoot to set the right goals for the race and training. this app is great-- no more guesswork. I can just check mcrun and know my pace before I head out the door.

Same here. Bought the app but it doesn't load.. But in less of two days they were able to fix the issue and now the app is working perfectly!

App crashes!. First off, I was super excited to check this app out. However, once I open the app, boom! It crashes instantly. Hopefully the bug will be fixed and I can write a rave review. Until then, 1 star.

Great tool for training. I've used this app for over 2 years and haven't had any issues with crashes. I view this as a "must have" app if you're serious about not just running, but getting faster and RACING.

Great Training App. One of the best resources out there for coaches and athlete.

App crashes on open. I just purchased this app to get the coaching calculations on the suggestion of their website instead of getting a subscription to their site. App crashes upon opening, many negative reviews about this issue, no update of app in 5 months. Developer needs to give me a free lifetime subscription to the site or fix the app that grants lifetime access to the thing I want. Preferably they get off their duffs and update the app!

Finally. As a high school cross country coach, I've been using McMillan's calculator for years and couldn't be happier to have this tool at my fingertips on my phone in a super easy to use format whether I'm at practice, a meet or wherever.

Great app for training. This is highly useful for runners training to be better.

Great supplement to the website. I love McMillan running and have followed his six-step training system for years. I've been a runner my whole life (I'm 33) and read tons of Runner's World articles and running advice, and his is the most comprehensive and scientific program that works for any level of runner. To get the most out of this app, read the free article on the website under training advice - it's the whole reason I use it. Being able to control your pace and training at different paces is the single most important skill a runner can have!

Always Training.. Very straightforward and always easy to refer back to. A highly useful and in some cases critical tool for effective training.

Best Race Predictor. Easy to use, pretty good estimate and the workout suggestions are helpful too

Great Training Tool. This is a great app. I've used it for ~2 yrs and by entering your projected race pace you get proper workout paces. Everything from long runs to easy runs to 400m repeats. I've found that the paces are consistent with other apps, online calculators and programs/magazines...but in one easy location. I recommend this app to anybody training for a half marathon or marathon who wants to incorporate proper speed workouts and appropriate intensity to their runs. It may be silly but I also like the motivational quotes you get when you turn the app sideways.

Excellent. Great app. Works like a charm.

Love this app!. App is easy to use and a great quick reference, it is also accurate if you put in the training, you can't train for a 5k and run the predicted marathon time without proper training

Does what I need. So far so good. Wish I could customize distance. But this is fine and does the job.

Don’t buy this app.. This app is not worth the money. It only calculates your run/race times based on recent race times. It does not allow you to specify GOAL times and give you training times based on GOALS. They are stealing money by still leaving this APP on the AppStore and haven’t updated it in 3 years. This is a rip off.

Great app! Good value!. Great support! I too had trouble loading this app after I purchased. For all of you negative reviewers out there, did you try contacting support? I got a response back from Peter the same day. Fix for me was simple and I had already resolved myself by the time I got his email, but I was impressed that I got a response at all! A little common sense goes a long way people. Delete the app and re-install. Works just fine. So what if it didn't work the first time. I didn't lose anything but a couple minutes of my time. Seems like a glitch they're actively working to resolve.

Useless. Crashes immediately.. Does not run at all on my phone: the app disappears after less than a second.

Missing features. Please add 600m distance to speed paces Add vLT and vVO2 which are also showed on web version

Useless. Need a refund

What?. Ok, I've used Mc's online free printout training it was more informative. The paces are in the box mostly because the box is enormous! If it would just tell you how many sets/intervals to do in those times it would be beneficial. As it is, it just confirms that the other calculators are better. Here's an idea for free: today I ran 18 miles in 74-70 degrees at an 8:45 avg pace. For the most part my splits were within 15 sec. Tho I noticed mile 15 w/ slight incline and headwind my pace diminished to about 9:07 and once I crested it came back within limits of avg. What can I expect to run 26.2 or 13.1 in. Please build an algorithm that depicts diminishing returns that you would find in a marathon situation. Just because I run 1:41 half doesn't equate to a 7:41 pace for 26.2. Get real. We are not all Ryan Hall or Momma Goucher! They are elite. We are not.

Help. I've loved this app forever. I just updated to the new apple ios10. The app keeps crashing now.

Can't use app. I bought the app and it will not even stay open for a minute. How do I get my money back?

Great App. I've been using this app since 2011 to calculate my training paces. I'm a huge fan! From 4:48 to 3:02(BQ)

Doesn’t even open. Bought it and it doesn’t even open! I want a refund!

Just crashes. Crashes 5 seconds after opening.

Great resource. Check it all the time to work out times for different running sessions. A good app for any runner.

Good App but missing some key info. This is a very handy app but I wished it showed the vLT and vVO2 data like the McMillan website does.

Unstable - don’t install. I bought this app today - 18-05-2019 - for my iPhone X with up-to-date iOS and it launches, then shuts down spontaneously in 3-6 seconds, i.e. it is completely unusable. I have contacted the app developer.

Doin it well. Does just what it needs to and does it well

Run faster. I’ve been using this app for a few years. I was dubious at first having to pay for it. But it has paid for itself with countless pbs. This app has helped me to train smarter but learning about which pace to run for different distances. It’s also helped me to workout if dream times are achievable. This app has definitely helped me to train smarter and get faster.

Love McRun!. Such a great app for coaching and my own training: paces are spot on!

Best training & coaching tool. An essential part of my coaching & training toolbox!

Awesome. It’s accurate. Great app

Very usefull. Smart paces.. Thanks!

I'm happy. This app is about information and easy to use times when paired up with a McMillan running program. I use the program though Strava premium and the works great to know my pace ranges.

Wow. Best possible app. It will help you achieve your goals

Much Better. Now the app is worth the money. It has the training paces for various workouts just like the web. Well done!!!

Love it. 😍

So much less capable than the free online calculator. I was disappointed in this app, so much so that I'm writing my first ever app review. The online McMillan pace calculator gives you a lot more options for entering the distance you want to base your race estimates on, in addition it provides not only total estimated race time, but also pacing in km and miles. This is a pretty basic app for the $2.99 they're charging for it.

Training pace ranges and performance calc. This calculator is amazing. It correctly predicted my half marathon time after entering my marathon data and gives me workout paces for training.

Simply thebest. The best running pace calculator !

Great app. I use it often. It's fast and accurate.

Great app!. Have been using this for a few years to help adjust where I am at fitness wise and determine realistic goals. Has been a great raining tool to focus workouts.

Crashes!. The website is great, and the workouts are awesome! However, this app crashes upon opening. Please fix or refund

Crash. Crashes upon loading . App doesn't work. Want my money back.

Good app, needs pace per mile for race times.. Have to go back to online free calculator for mile splits. Please update!

Use all the time. This app could give lessons on how to give users what they want, without adding distractingly bells & whistles.

Intuitive. Great app. McRun has saved hours off of my life by making it quick and intuitive to make sure I hit my training targets. It'll get 5 stars once it integrates more functionality.

Useful and accurate. I love to run and occasionally train. When its time to train you're best off with structure and goals. I found the McMillan calculator a while back and am stoked to have it here. Thanks

Application crashes when opened.. Not functional. Only designed for iPhone.

Super useful tool!. I love this app. It's simple but comprehensive, a ton of bang for your buck. Love the training recommendations. Perfect if you're ready to take your training to the next level.

A Winner!. Handsome, intuitive, and easy to use (not to mention loaded with Easter Eggs!), this great utilitarian tool just claimed a spot on the front screen of my iPhone. Thanks!

Wasted my money. When I reviewed the app before purchasing, it looked very user friendly. Once I downloaded it, not so much. I am very familiar with running apps and this one makes no sense to me.

Bogus app. I want a refund. It crashes before I ever get the chance to use it. What a waste of money!!!!

App won't open. Paid $5 and app closes immediately after trying to open it up. Please fix!

One of the Best. One of the best calculators out there. I have used for 400s up through a 10 mile and it gives a pretty good estimate. Easy to use. Would like to give more than one recent time as an input simultaneously to minimize noise.

Crashes. I paid $4.99 for this and all it does it crash! So frustrated!

Do not waste your money!!. Excludes goal data therefore no comparison stats or training paces for current vs goal times. Only option available is current results.

Perfect Mobile Training Calculator. Awesome features for on-the-go runners. I can calculate my training paces as well as see equivalent race times from anywhere. It predicts my race times down to the minute - very accurate!

No match necessary!. Super useful app. Easy to use with all the information I need. This is going to make workout planning a breeze!

App crashes. Fix this. I can't even open on my iPhone 6. Not impressed after paying 5 bucks. Get it together.

Best tool ever. I live with this app on a daily basis. Critical tool for training.

Crashes Upon Start Up. Having used this app before online and on android, I was excited to see it on iPhone, but it doesn't work. It crashes right as I start it up. I'm reinstalling it hoping it works, but I'm doubtful.

Simply the Best Running Calculator Out There. Not only does it provide excellent race prediction times, but it also gives helpful training paces as well. The app is well laid out and designed to boot.

Essential app for serious runners. This app is all about training and allowing you to project your running paces across different distances. An essential tool for serious runners and coaches alike.

I use this for my run club. This app is a great convenient tool for pacing my run club and also training I do myself

It just estimated my full marathon time. (Based on my last Half) I'm sure it's right, but it makes we want to train harder to prove it wrong!

McRun away with your money. Don't buy. Not worth your $. You can get ones for free that do the same thing. Thought it came with training plans but it doesn't. It's just a race time calculator. That's it.

Great application. It has worked flawlessly for me. It allows for easy "what if" scenarios.

Great app. Been using this app for about 3 years, very accurate and very user friendly! I definitely recommend it

McRun. This a fast and easy way to help determine your fitness level across a variety of distances. The workout pace suggestions are a great tool for athletes of all ages and ability levels.

Excellent app!. McMillan definitely has the best equivalent times. Great to see that it's now mobile. Love the training runs and speed workouts!

What's missing is.... This app NEEDS a description of each workout. Without it there is no way to know how long one needs to run specific workouts, or what their target heart rate should be. Add this and it's a five-star app. Thanks.

Great race calculator app!. Makes calculations easy to better optimize training and race times. Also I like the inspirational quotes and running tips when you turn the screen sideways!

Buggy on iPAD. Seems to work fine on iPhone, not at all well on the iPAD. Could also use definitions of the workout types within the app rather than having to go back to the website if you aren't very familiar with his terms. Great start though!

Pace. I need an app that tells me if I'm on pace WHILE RUNNING. Does this do it?

McMillan App. Perfect for distance runners serious and occasional alike runners.

Missing Data. Where are the minute/miles for each of the equivalent race times? It's nice to quickly know what you need for a target race and I can't find it on the app.

Really useful. Provides a fast and easy way to figure out training pace based on recent race times or goal times.

Crashes upon opening. Crashes on iPhone 5s with iOS 8.3

Calculations aren. The app is supposed to calculate training paces. it doesn't have plans, which is fine, but it doesn't do what it is supposed to and that is give you equivalent training paces. Save your money and go to Macmillan Running and get the paces and a good explanation of how to utilize them.

CRASH ALERT. WARNING. I SPENT $5 FOR AN APP THAT CRASHES WHEN I OPEN IT. I WANT MY MONEY BACK!!!!!

Thanks for the update. It was broken, now it's fixed. Thanks!

Holy crash cow. Do not buy, I just made the mistake for you. Crashes before you can even open it. Go online to use it, their app is not worth the $4.99 I just wasted.

Gave me confidence.... McRun helped me workout at the right paces by helping me feel confident of the times as reasonable. As a result, I lowered my half marathon time by a minute a mile!

Perfect. This is an excellent app that I use frequently. If you're a runner and routinely race different distances, it is a great resource and an excellent value.

High school coach. Easy to use app that incorporates the best features of the Mcmillan running calculator. This is a must have tool for any athlete or coach looking to train smarter.

GREAT PROGRAM!. It has proven to be a great utility for upping my performance. A must for runners.

Wish I could get a refund!. I paid what for what exactly? Not impressed at all...

Continually hangs. I am very disappointed. I have used the McMillan Running Calculator in the past and was pleased to see a handheld app. However, I used the app exactly one time and the app hung up. I couldn't even close it and restart the app. It showed one calculation screen and then before I had the opportunity to examine it, it displayed a quote and never left the quote screen. $5 wasted.

Crashes every time. Can't even use the app don't waste your money

App won't load. What the hell? Pay $5 and the app won't even load? Thieves!!!!
