User Reviews

User reviews praise NRC for Coach Bennett-driven motivation, a free, easy-to-use run tracker, and structured guided runs that boost consistency. However, multiple reviews highlight major downsides: updates frequently drop support for older Apple Watches, causing data loss and unreliability; distance measurements can be inaccurate and runs may be interrupted by pauses. Users also want legacy compatibility and clearer communication about updates.

Pros

Motivational coaching from Coach Bennett and NRC.
Free to use with no cost.
Easy-to-use run tracker with miles tracking and per-shoe mileage.
Guided runs provide structure and training progression for all levels.
Helps users stay consistent and feel motivated to improve.

Cons

Updates remove support for older Apple Watches (watchOS), causing loss of use and data on those devices.
Distance measurements can be inaccurate, with reports of undercounting distance (e.g., about 50 meters per kilometer).
Run recording can pause or stop unexpectedly, undermining reliability.
Loss of recent run data due to compatibility changes and requests for a legacy version.
Poor communication about updates, including no warning before removing the watch app on older devices.

Recent reviews

I’ve used NRC on iPhone for 10+ years with no issues, but ever since updating my Apple software, the Apple Watch app has been crashing and glitching constantly. During one run, the screen on my watch went black after I paused my run yet it continued recording, so I couldn’t see my mileage, time, or heart rate. Even worse, it crashed at the start of an important race, forcing me to use my phone instead! It’s frustrating to see the watch experience become so unstable after a software update. After a month of these issues, I’m seriously considering switching to another running app. Please fix this!

After new update, the app required my email address to send a verification code to my email. The email with the verification code never arrived to my inbox even after several attempts. I have been trying to contact support but I have not been able to because in order to contact support through the website I’m required to access my account using my password an a 8 digit verification code.
