Running can be an amazing way to decompress. It’s a great way to get outside and appreciate the changing of the seasons. It’s a way to challenge yourself to new personal records. Often, it’s simply a way to get some time to yourself. But some people might need a bit of extra something to make running enjoyable. There are tons of running apps available for Android and Apple phones, but we’ve gathered a few that help make running (more) fun.

Nike Run Club

One of the very first running apps, Nike Run Club is packed with features that give you more to do on your runs. NRC summaries are a cool way to see your run, showing a heatmap of where you ran hardest. Personal records are shown off in a sleek trophy case.

The killer feature is NRC’s “Guided Runs,” audio commentary from coaches and celebrities that guide and motivate you during a run. The Guided Run library is expansive, and features guides for different run lengths, intensities, and intentions.
