In your words
Whatever is going on, just say it.
- My hip has been nagging me all week.
- I have my period and I feel awful.
- I skipped yesterday. What now?
- I haven't run in two years. Where do I even start?
- Same training as always, and my body is not responding the same.
- I really don't feel like it today. Should I go anyway?
She answers right away, with your history in front of her. If your cycle is knocking you flat, the week eases. She knows only what you tell her, and keeps it only if you say yes.
How it works
Two minutes to start. After that, it's a conversation.
Example screens. Yours is built around you.
Tell her about you
A few short questions: how long you have been running, how many days you can give it, what you are aiming for. No watch needed.
How long have you been running?
- I'm new to running
- I run now and then
- I run most weeks
- I've been running for years
You get your week
A plan built around your days, with sessions that make sense on first read: what to do and how it should feel.
This week
Tue
Easy run · 30 min
A pace you could hold a conversation at.
Thu
Short intervals · 6 × 1 min
Quick but controlled, easy jog in between.
Sun
Long run with friends · 40 min
Keep it relaxed. This one is about time on your feet.
Tell her how it went
Good, so-so, or it didn't happen. She listens, and next week starts from where you are today.
- The inside of my shin has ached on my last two runs.
- That is not something to run on. Today becomes a 30-minute walk instead, and if it still hurts on Thursday I want a physio to look at it before you run again.
Who it's for
From your first run to your first half marathon.
A coach who talks to you like a person
Warm and direct. When you tell her about a bad day, she believes you first and adjusts second.
Starts where you are
Running and walking in your first month, or a half marathon in the spring. Plans begin at your level and grow with you.
Strength explained in plain words
Legs, glutes and core, a few minutes a week, and why it matters when the miles go up, told so you actually want to do it.
The specifics
What you are actually signing up for.
- To start: your email and a few questions, about two minutes. Nothing else.
- Your plan is ready the moment you finish the questions, your days and your sessions already laid out.
- For a 5K, a 10K, a half or a full marathon, or for building the habit with no race in sight.
- Each session is written in plain words, to read before you head out and carry in your head.
- Wear a Garmin, Coros, Polar or Suunto? She can read your runs through a free intervals.icu account. Optional.
The honest part
What you can count on.
Your paces are yours
She works from your actual runs, read from your watch through intervals.icu if you wear one. If there are none yet, she starts from a few questions and calls those paces what they are, estimates, until she sees you run.
Every week starts where you are
If a run falls through, the plan moves on and next week picks up from wherever you are. What you run always counts.
Your miles climb at your pace
Every change, yours or hers, goes through a check that keeps the climb in miles sensible, so each good week carries you into the next. You know your body; the check keeps the plan from getting ahead of it.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
Is this an AI?
Yes, and we say so from the start. Allyson is a coach built on a language model, with your history in front of her and a safety check between her and your calendar. That is what makes her yours: she knows you and works with your plan.
Why not just ask ChatGPT?
You can, and for a one-off question it is fine. What it does not have is your running: it has never seen your runs or your paces, it does not hold your plan, and if you ask it for one it will invent the numbers with alarming confidence. Your coach has your history in front of her and rewrites your week when life happens, and before any of that reaches your calendar a check makes sure it is not handing you something reckless.
Do I need a running watch?
No. A few questions are enough for a full plan. If you wear a Garmin, Coros, Polar or Suunto, you can bring your runs in through intervals.icu, a free service that reads from your watch, and your paces get sharper. An Apple Watch is different: intervals.icu doesn't read from it, so your coach builds the plan from what you tell her, and what your watch says counts as soon as you pass it on. It is never required.
What if I get sick or injured?
You tell your coach, in plain words. She eases or moves what needs moving, and if something hurts for more than a few days she will tell you to get it looked at before you run on it.
Does it track my cycle?
It does not need to. You tell your coach when it is affecting you and the plan adapts. If you want her to remember something about your body, she keeps it only with your yes.
Does she talk about weight or calories?
No. Your plan comes from how you run, and she never gives you a weight to hit or a calorie count. Ask her what to eat before or after a session and she answers. On her own she brings food up only where it protects you: a note about a gel on a long run, or, if a tiredness sleep does not fix comes with other signs, that eating enough for your training is one thing a doctor can check. If food or your body ever become a hard subject, she stays gentle and points you to a sports dietitian or your doctor.
Is there an Android app?
Not yet, but it is on the way. The iPhone app is on the App Store now, and this page will say so the day the Android one is ready to download.
Is this medical advice?
No. It is a training tool. For pain that persists, or any health concern, see a doctor or physio. Your coach will tell you the same.
