Hey Product Hunt! A couple of years ago, I was struggling with my own running journey. I wanted to get healthier, push myself, maybe run my first marathon—but honestly, I felt lost. Every app felt overwhelming or cold. I wanted someone (or something) that could guide me, motivate me, and just be there in those tough moments. The real problem? Most training tools don’t feel human. They’re complicated, expensive, or just not built for people with busy lives—especially in places like Latin America, where we live on WhatsApp, not fancy dashboards. That’s why I built Andes. Andes is my way of giving runners—beginners and experienced—the chance to get real, science-backed coaching right where they already chat with family and friends. No new apps, no intimidating jargon. Just open WhatsApp, message Andes, and you get: A personalized plan that adapts to your pace and feedback, Proactive support to help you avoid injuries (we all fear getting hurt), A friendly, culturally-aware voice (in English and Spanish) that feels like a running buddy, not a robot. What makes me proud? It’s not the tech—it’s the stories from people who say, “I finally ran my first 10K,” or “Andes helped me believe in myself.” This isn’t just a launch for me; it’s an invitation to anyone who ever doubted they could run, or just wanted a bit more support to get out the door. If you’re curious, or if you’ve ever struggled with running, I’d love for you to try Andes. Let me know your honest thoughts—what works, what doesn’t, what you wish existed. Your feedback will help me keep improving and hopefully support more runners like us, everywhere. Thank you so much for reading, and for being a part of this new chapter! Let’s run smarter together. 🏔️

This is truely awesome! Love that it uses WhatsApp – so many people already use it, so adding a training coach right into my existing chat feels kinda genius imo. No need to download another app, which is a huge plus. How customizable is the training plan for different goals beyond a marathon, like just improving my 5k time?
