RUNALYZE

RUNALYZE suits an endurance athlete who wants detailed analysis after training rather than a watch app that coaches a session live. Its broad import options and historical connections make it useful for combining data from several services, while the free tier covers core performance measures. Activities must reach the account through a connected service, upload, or API, and the Android app is only a companion. Check platform availability, browser requirements, and which Premium tools matter before paying yearly.

  • Estimates effective VO2max from heart rate and pace.
  • Predicts races from 3 km through ultramarathon.
  • Imports data through many services, files, and APIs.
