How it works

One minute to set up.
Then shoes on an go!

  1. 01

    Connect & choose

    Download and sign up — no forms to fill and no password needed! Pick your goal from five plans, from Couch to 5K all the way to your first ultra, and tell Shooson the days you can run.

  2. 02

    Run your sessions

    Each workout syncs to your watch — Apple, Garmin or Wear OS. Quiet nudges (not annoying beeping!) keep you on target, every kilometre earns a snack, and you unlock real landmarks as you go.

  3. 03

    Adapt & review

    Each week reshapes around what you actually ran. Weekly, monthly and year-in-review recaps show your progress — the coach handles the planning, you just run.

What it does

For every runner. Every goal.

A plan for every finish line.

Five goals, ready to go: Couch to 5K, Bridge to 10K, 10K to half marathon, your first marathon, your first 50K ultra or an adaptive plan that changes with you! Pick where you want to end up — Shooson maps the whole way there.

A coach that adapts to you.

Chasing a faster pace or a longer distance? The plan moves with you. Strong week, it pushes; missed a run, it rebalances. You always get the next step that actually fits where you are.

Built around your week.

Tell Shooson which days you can run — two, three, five, whatever your life allows — and the plan is shaped around them. A training schedule that bends to you, not the other way round.

Kilometres you can taste.

Pick the food or drink you love and every run is measured in it — "2 beers", "1 burger", a stack of pancakes. A reward that means something, for the run you'd actually brag about.

On every wrist.

Your session syncs straight to your watch — Apple Watch, Garmin and Wear OS. Segment cues, zones and skip-on-a-button, all on your wrist. No watch, no problem though with on phone tracking options too!

Run the world from your front door.

Every kilometre carries you on a virtual journey out from home, past real landmarks discovered nearby — peaks, monuments, town squares — unlocked one by one as your distance adds up.

Your running, in review.

A weekly recap every Monday, a monthly round-up, and a proper deep-dive year in review. Trends, pace, effort and streaks — the full story of how far you've come.

Nudges, not nagging.

A watch app that quietly reminds you of your targets and keeps you on track — without the endless beeping. Coaching that helps you run, then gets out of the way.

Private by default.

No social feed, no follower count, no profile to fill in. No password — not even one. No ads, no tracking, no profiling. Just you and your running.

Built and hosted in the EU.

Designed, built and run on European servers — no Big Tech clouds, no data shipped overseas. Privacy isn't a setting here; it's where the whole thing lives.

Questions

What runners ask us.

How much does shooson cost?
Yes — Shooson is free during beta and built to be an affordable long-term alternative. Beyond that we are aiming to cost per year what other apps charge per month.
Does Shooson track or sell my data?
Never. There is no advertising, no third-party profiling and no data sold. Shooson doesn't even ask for a password — it is private by architecture, not just by policy. Built and hosted entirely in the EU under GDPR.
Which watches does Shooson support?
Apple Watch, Garmin (Connect IQ) and Wear OS. No watch? Phone-only tracking on iOS and Android works too — Shooson meets you wherever you are.
Can I train for a marathon or ultra with Shooson?
Absolutely. There are five guided plans: Couch to 5K, Bridge to 10K, 10K to half marathon, first marathon and first 50K ultra. Every plan adapts weekly around your actual runs — push harder, it scales up; miss a session, it rebalances without judgement.
How is Shooson different from big running apps?
No leaderboards, no follower counts, no subscription tiers engineered to upsell you. Shooson is a coaching tool — it does one thing well and then gets out of the way. No Big Tech infrastructure means your data stays in the EU and stays yours.
