I just set my PR in the marathon by over 10 minutes, and I'm thrilled with TRACER! In the past I’ve been too cheap or too stubborn to pay for a coach and felt confident adapting several training plans together to get what I wanted. Right now my life is insanely busy so I REALLY appreciated both having something tailored exactly to me without me having to do the research and the work of putting together a training plan, and also I appreciated having something that would simulate a daily coach check in and necessitate accountability. That really helped my motivation.

I used Max King's marathon training and definitely liked his style which I thought was cool that it could be reflected through the AI. TRACER did a great job of adjusting to my age and gender. My goal was to PR on a marathon before I “retired” to strictly trail running and longer races. My previous fastest time was 11 years and 4 kids ago. Not a few people told me my fastest days were behind me, being in my 40's. But I ended up setting a personal record by more than 10 minutes, taking 6th overall in women and winning my age group in a field of about 350 women. I'll be using TRACER again this fall for my next race!
