I’m really happy with my 2025 results, especially compared to 2024. You can clearly see the progress and the work done with Vert.run. Now, with motivation at its peak, I’m aiming for MCC 2026!

What is Vert.run?
Vert.run is a trail running training app for every level, whether you're new to the sport, getting ready for a 10k trail race or building toward an ultra. Your plan is built around your goal, your running background, the terrain you train on and the time you have, reviewed by a coach, and adapts as you go. Want a coach of your own? VertCoaching pairs you with one. 100,000+ runners in over 100 countries have trained with Vert.run. Start with a 7-day free trial.
How is Vert.run different from other running apps?
Vert.run is built around trail and ultra running. Sessions are guided by effort (RPE) rather than pace, climbing is tracked with the Mountain Index (metres of climbing per kilometre), and your plan is built around the terrain you can actually train on, so a city runner can prepare for a mountain race. And there are real coaches behind it: every new plan is reviewed by a coach, and VertCoaching gives you your own.
How much does Vert.run cost?
VertPro is $9.90/month billed annually ($118.80/year) or $19.90/month billed monthly, with a 7-day free trial. VertCoaching, with your own 1:1 coach, is $45/month.
Is Vert.run suitable for beginners?
Yes. Vert.run works for every level, from runners trying trail for the first time to experienced runners targeting 100 miles. Sessions are guided by effort instead of pace, so they work on any terrain and at any fitness level. You can adjust your plan any time: move sessions, report a busy week or rebuild the plan with Coach Vert.run, the in-app coaching assistant.
Who designs the Vert.run training plans?
Vert.run plans are built by experienced trail and ultra coaches who race the distances they coach, including co-founders Max Keith and Moisés Jiménez. Every new plan is reviewed by a coach shortly after sign-up to make sure it fits your goal.
What GPS watches and devices does Vert.run support?
Vert.run syncs with Garmin, Coros, Suunto and Strava. You can send workouts to Garmin, Coros and Suunto watches, and completed runs come back to your plan automatically. Apple Watch runs can sync through Strava. You can also connect your ITRA profile to bring your race results into the app.
Can I train for a 50k or 100-mile ultramarathon with Vert.run?
Yes. Vert.run has plans for trail races from 10k to 100 miles, including 50k, 100k, 100-mile and backyard ultras, built by coaches who have raced those distances.
What is the difference between VertPro and VertCoaching?
VertPro gives you an adaptive plan reviewed by a coach at the start, 5 messages with a human coach, and Coach Vert.run, an in-app assistant that adjusts your plan when life gets in the way. VertCoaching adds your own coach for ongoing 1:1 guidance, starting with an onboarding call and weekly check-ins.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. VertPro comes with a 7-day free trial. You can start it at app.vert.run.
