"There are many apps that track where and how much you run, but not many to help you discover new places to run. Luckily, there's the WalkJogRun app, which gives you the ability to navigate through over 500,000 user-submitted map-based running trails."

"Looking for a good route to run while on vacation? Or a new one near home? This $2.99 app taps a library of over 400,000 user-created routes. A newly added city-search feature lets you plan ahead, and you can create your own routes on the WalkJogRun site."

    • Walk 5k: gradually build-up your walking distance and are ideal for people who don't exercise.
    • Walk-Run 5k: mostly walking with a little running and are the next step for walkers to get closer to non-stop running a 5k.
    • Run-Walk 5k: mostly running with a little walking and are the next step for walk-runners to get closer to non-stop running a 5k.
    • Run 5k in the beginner group are for people who have progressed to the point where you are running 3 times a week and want to train for a race.
  • Intermediate: The Intermediate 5k Training Plan is for someone who has run at least one 5k and is looking to finish feeling stronger and faster than last time.
  • Advanced: The Advanced 5k Training Plan is for someone who has run several 5ks and is looking to boost race performance with speed and endurance workouts for that personal best.
