Charge Running

Finally gave Charge Running a try. Wow amazed at the experience!

I started using Charge Running at the beginning of the first lockdown in Switzerland in early 2020. The coached live sessions truly helped me improve my running pace and form and I just love the community aspect of it. To me it actually felt like a fully developed and established product – only realizing now that you guys are still at the beginning of your journey! Anyways... long story short: I LOVE charge running, it's one of only a few apps that actually provide real-life value for me. 😊 Rooting for your team! Ps. Random idea, but I would love to interview someone from Charge on our audio platform Angle!

@matthew_knippen, your pricing is quite aggressive for a consumer app. Either I get a 7-day trial with a $230 annual subscription or it's $30 to try it. The pricing is not revealed upfront either - it is buried deep in FAQ. Did you arrive to it by experimenting? Also, there are plenty of negative reviews on GooglePlay from ripped off customers who tried to cancel and got hit with a $120 bill. Any comment to that?

I love plugging into charge for a run, Ive been using it since January and its wicked, training tips, motivation, pacing it really helps balance the level of effort that you put into a run which has enabled me to train more consistently.

I have been running for about 10 years and always thought I preferred solo runs in order to just zone out and be by myself for awhile. But since trying Charge as part of a free trial about 10 months ago, I have rarely run without it. Running has never felt easier or more natural. I never worked in walk breaks when running on my own, but since following the coaches' directions, my paces are consistently faster, while my runs still leave me feeling refreshed and smiling. I genuinely look forward to every run in a way I never did in the years of running without it :)

I started using charge after I ran my first marathon. It keep you motivated and I have ran right through the winter months which can be difficult because of the cold weather. My husband thinks I am nut when I say I am going for a run with my running group. He is like do you know how cold it is and I say yes I just have to layer more. I love the this app

I have used the Charge Running app since last November. I was so discouraged by not being able to participate in races. Charge Running filled the gap for me, but not just that, because I use this app, I have racked up more miles than I have in years. I love having the Live run feature and having the coach talk to you throughout the run in tandem to running with people all over the world. I have really improved my overall running ability thanks to this app. I am a huge fan. They also introduced a new feature where you get to listen to your own music while you run. It's great. I love this app.
