Using the app’s goal-setting features, Sarah was able to break down her journey into manageable milestones. With daily encouragement from the Runtomiles community, Sarah not only completed her first 5K but has since run several more races.
“Runtomiles gave me the motivation to keep going. The app wasn’t just about tracking miles—it was about connecting with a community that celebrated every success, no matter how small,” Sarah shares.
