Two coaches, one plan.

Both are included, and you can switch whenever you like. Try a sample, then pick the voice you would welcome on a morning when getting out the door takes a little more.

Meet Lana.

Lana is the first coach the app offers. In under a minute, she tells you how it works, in the same voice that cues your sessions.

Hi, I'm Lana, a coach in First Gear. I'm here to help you build a running habit that sticks, even if you hate running. You don't have to love it. You just have to show up, and I'll coach you through your running in a sustainable way that helps you be consistent.

Here's how it works. You pick three or more days a week. Each session targets twenty minutes, and we always start with a walk. Your Apple Watch reads your heart rate, and I follow it. When it has room for a little run, I'll say so. When it needs a break, I'll say that too. I keep track of heat and hills, and I'll tell you when they made a run harder. It's the day, not you.

Easy running and walking build cardiovascular fitness, and easy is what I coach. There are six stages, and you choose when to move up. Miss a week, and your stage waits for you. No streaks. No guilt.

Starting is the hard part. I'll keep the rest easy. Come run with me.

What the sample says:

Today, we're aiming for twenty minutes of walking and gentle running. Fifteen minutes counts as a completed session. If you finish sooner, your outing is still saved. You can stop whenever you need to.

Cal

Calm and steady. Explains as you go.
