VDOT Running Calculator reviews
4.8 out of 5, based on 9,008 reviews.
What people like
- Very simple and easy to use.
- Great for setting training paces.
- Based on trusted Jack Daniels research.
What they complain about
- Crashes when using custom distances.
- Forces re-entering data every time.
- Premium costs too much for few uses.
Great tool
Very helpful for setting paces in training. Of course it requires you have a few good data points (race times) as a starting point.
What happened?!
App was apparently just updated and now won’t open.
Cannot buy the app
I cannot do the in-app purchase. When I press the option button. The app quit automatically. Please fix it. I use iPhone 15 pro max with iOS 18.2. Thank you. This is a good app.
Crashes
I try to upgrade the app to premium and it crashes and closes abruptly.
Used to be great
This app used to be my go-to for running based calculations. But the most recent update (Aug 2020) limits you to 3 calculations per day unless you upgrade to the not-so-cheap premium version. Sorry, but there are other free apps out there to do simple arithmetic. Deleted.
The best
Simplicity of use is it’s beauty
わかりません
使い方派わかりません
Great but it does bin data all the time
I wish it would remember previous data. It’s a pain to have to re enter data every time you open the app.
Whats the difference between this one
Hi Want to ask should this app to be paired with the vo2 app? I don’t get it, what’s the difference between the 2? Don’t tell me I’ll have to purchase both??
Custom distance doesn’t support metric.
Nice App; but, tried to get result for a recent 8K which is a custom distance and app only has “mi” without ability to change.
VDOT Calculator
It may not be perfect, and in some ways dependent on the training you do. But it does give some important clues on training and ability. It is an excellent tool, even though at times imperfect in its results.
New charges!
Used to be free now you have to ‘go premium’ to get any more than 3 daily calculations! This used to be a convenient app but not any more... delete!
Great app but a minor bug
App is great but crashes anytime you try to use the custom distance
Has some bugs
You can’t see anything beyond 200 and 400m training results (app won’t let you scroll through the table) and when you click on links for definitions of Threshold, Marathon, etc., it takes you to a page, gives you the first part of each definition and ends in “...” with no ability to see the full definition.
Si resetta ogni volta
Bella ma ogni volta che la apro devo reinserire i miei parametri nonostante sia iscritto e utilizzi anche l'app VDOT O2
Does its job and does it well, but one suggestion...
Great app and seamless to use. My only suggestion and wishlist for this app would be to add 6k and 8k to the list of common distances (as I believe the 1600 and 1500 were added not that long ago?) as to make it a little easier instead of having to custom distance those every time for the collegiate users out there and these being two standard cross country distances. Otherwise thank you for all the hard work you’ve put into making this app what it is!
Almost there
If only it would remember the data and not have you enter it every time you open the app.... Update: fixed one thing, broke a few more. Plus added "pro" for smth that was there before.... Too bad. Had such potential, but it's time to delete it. Adios!
Good..but..
A very useful tool which if you are using the Daniels system for training. My only complaint is that I wish it would remember your VDOT, as every time you go into it you have to input your race time to get you VDOT. I'm also puzzled as to why after entering a race result, that same race is then predicted as a few seconds slower!
Custom distance fail
It could be as great as web version, but I can use the custom distance option because always crash down. I can't read definitions.
Anticipated Effect and Race Result Option
The online calculator allows the user to select "anticipated effect" or "race result" to see how going to elevation or going to sea level would affect his or her pace/time. The app does not offer this feature or I cannot find it. If you could please help in anyway that would be greatly appreciated. Love the idea of the app though!
Cannot see definitions
This app doesn’t allow you to see their definitions of their workouts, making the times it calculates almost useless. If this would be fixed I would rate it a 5! They got back to me and fixed the problem. 5/5
Doesn't work with custom distances
Useless unless you have race results. Won't do calculation if you input custom distances. So rather pointless for tracking evolution of your fitness from week to week - I don't run races that much but I do track my distances that I run.
Good tool that could be better
I've been using Jack Daniels' running formula for training for about 6 months. So I refer to Vdot almost daily. However, this app would be much more useful if it remembers your last race settings. I don't want to remember my most recent race results, and enter it each time I want to verify training paces. I guess I will continue to keep a tab open in Safari with my current race information. It's a shame because the app is actually easier to use except for that'd or detail.
Could use 10-miler race distance.
If you beed space, scrap either 3200 or 2-Mile. :-) Thank you!
Good app from Jack Daniels
Really happy to see this out for iOS now. Very useful for when you are on the go and need to remind yourself of your training paces or if you are coaching others and want to help them find theirs. I have always appreciated the research done by Jack Daniels and I am happy he is finding ways to share that info through new technological ways. Improvements I would like to see: A way to input your VDOT score and get your training times. I often have mine memorized and its easier to just plug it in then to put in my most recent race. This feature on the website would be great too. I would also like to be able to type in the times rather than using the scroll feature in the app. If possible, having just the number keypad pop up to use for typing would be the most efficient way to do it.
Perfect
A godsend for tailoring your training to your goals and assessing your progess.
Nice update
Custom distance was fixed!
Best in class...
...from the best coaching group in the sport.
Really like it, true 5 star
Love the app, I'd describe it as userlove - light and easy. After fixing that minor bug this becomes a true 5 star app. Thanks guys!
