Run Steps

Detect end of workout Run Steps can detect when you haven't been running for a while and remind you to end the workout.

The audible instruction can be activated with this setting.

Block alerts Workout blocks in a training plan can have several conditions, such as a certain minimum heart rate, maximum power output or range of cadence. Run Steps can play an audio alert when you haven't met the condition for the currently active block. The audio alert is repeated every ~20 seconds

Audio Splits Run Steps can you give audible feedback after every split (every 1 Kilometer or 1 Mile) about your time and pace that split.

Run Steps uses the voice you select here when giving you audible feedback

max bpm
Set your maximum heart rate in beats per minutes. Run Steps can automatically set this if you have filled out your date of birth on you iPhone and have granted Run Steps access to your health records. Otherwise fill out 220 - your age. So if you're 30, your maximum BPM is 190.

The following metrics can be enabled

• Distance
  The total distance of your run
• Pace
  Your current running pace; the time it takes to run 1 mile or kilometer at your current speed
• Heart rate + zone
  Your current heart rate and the heart rate zone
• Energy
  The amount of extra kilocalories you have burned during this run. This number would be 0 if you were not moving at all.
• Average heart rate
  Your average heart rate, measured over the entire duration of your current run
• Average pace
  Your average pace, measured over the entire duration of your current run
• Rolling pace
  Your pace in your last mile or kilometer. For example, when you've run 1.8 miles (or kilometer) this number displays the time it took to run from 0.8 to 1.8 miles
  Your rolling pace starts as soon as the first distance measurement is recorded, not when you start a workout. For that reason the rolling pace will be silghtly faster than your average pace during the first mile/kilometer
• Speed
  Your current running speed in mile per hour or kilometer per hour
• Average speed
  Your average running speed, measured over the entire duration of your current run
• Steps
  The total number of steps you have taken during your current run
• Cadence
  Your current cadence, or steps per minute
• Average cadence
  Your average cadence, measured over the entire run
• Power
  Your current energy output in watt. Fill out your age in your Apple Health Profile to improve the accuracy of this number
• Altitude
  Your current altitude
• Elevation
  The total elevation you have gained since the start of your workout.
• Split Time
  Your time it has taken you so far to complete the current split (mile or kilometer)
  After completing a distance of 1 mile or kilomter, this timer will reset and start counting from 0
• Split Pace
  Your running pace during the current split (mile or kilometer)
• Split Distance
  The distance you have run in the current split (mile or kilometer)
After completing a distance of 1 mile or kilomter, this counter will reset and start counting from 0
• Finish Time
  The projected finish time of your current fixed-distance run
  When running with a target distance, this number takes into account how many miles are left and what your current speed is. Based on these metrics, it constantly updates the expected finish time.
• Required Pace
  The pace required to finish your fixed-distance run within the allotted time
  When running with a target distance and a timer, this pace takes into account how many miles and how much time is left. Based on these metrics, it shows the minimum pace required to finish just before the time runs out.

  When running a fixed distance with a timer, 2 pace indicators will be visible.
  

  The left circle is a pace indicator: it tells you if your current pace is fast enough to finish before the time runs out.
  It is green if your pace is fast enough, and red if it's too slow

  The right circle is a schedule indicator: it tells you if you're ahead or behind schedule, based on a fixed pace.
  For example, when running 10K with a timer set for 1 hour, the required pace to finish on time is 10 km/h
  After 30 minutes, your completed distance should be 5 km.
  If your total distance at 30 minutes is more than 5 km, you're ahead of your schedule and the indicator will be green.
  If you're between 0.0 and 0.2 km (or 0.0 - 1/8 mile) behind schedule, the indicator will be yellow.
  If you're between 0.2 and 0.4 km (or 1/8 - 1/4 mile) behind schedule, the indicator will be orange.
  If you're more than 0.4 km (1/4 mile) behind schedule, the indicator will be red.
  

  As long as the left indicator is green, you will finish in time
  If the left indicator is green and the right indicator is green, you're ahead and can slow down a bit if needed
  If the left indicator is green and the right indicator is yellow/orange/red, you're going fast enough and will catch up with your schedule; eventually the right indicator will turn green.
  If the left indicator is red you'll need to increase your pace to finish in time.
