Does the NRC App Have Training Plans?
Yes, the Nike Run Club App features training plans created by our expert NRC coaches for all levels of runners, so you don’t need to know the difference between a fartlek and a tempo run to become a better runner, have fun, and accomplish your goals.
Our coaches create detailed plans that explain the goal for each training week and the purpose of every run to educate you on your journey. Every run also offers an Audio Guided Run, so you can have an NRC coach motivate and inspire you along the way!
