Run smarter, stay stronger
Bupa Smart Runner helps runners of all abilities add fun and variety to their running routines.
Simply replace one of your normal runs every week with a ‘smart run’, a randomised running workout. There are three ‘smart runs’ to choose from: hill runs, sprint runs, and cross training runs.
Choose the length of your workout, select your ability level and let the audio guide lead you through an exciting new workout. Sync the app with your iTunes library to create your own personalised running music playlists.
Learn better technique as you go along and access advice from Bupa’s sports medicine experts at www.facebook.com/buparunning.
The app allows you to log aches and pains in the personal ‘niggle diary’. Should your ‘niggles’ become serious, you can find a local Bupa physio, then download a handy PDF of your ‘niggle diary’ to take along to your appointment.
