I've used Zen Labs c2 5k/10k trainer app, but I would like to use a half marathon trainer before running the tough mudder. I noticed that Zen labs does not have a free version. Any opinions about another app brand?

    there are many similar threads if you use the search function.
    endomondo and runkeeper are in the free apps bit of mfp and sync runs.
    have used runtastic and runkeeper,but both faltered after a while.
    now just use the free samsung health app on my phone.its as good as any to track data.
    spending a little money on a dedicated running watch has been my best option.less worry about failed signal/gps etc and easy to glance at for time/pace.

    Rather than an app, I use a training plan and scheduled it into my work week.

    Then - using strava or garmin connect - it is part of my training schedule.

    (+1 on the GPS watch.)

    I HAAAAAATE running yet still found the Adidas Train and Run app fun, challenging and easy to use.

    The LLS has a good training guide for a half marathon. I'd just look that up

    It's not an "app" as such but for a good progressive plan use
