Flexible training
Your plan, built around real life
Training plans are easy to write and hard to follow. Glass Slipper Run keeps yours flexible without breaking it.
- Change your training days and long-run day at any time; your plan updates to match
- Move a single run to another day in the same week
- Rearrange a whole week with Edit week, and reset to the planned week whenever you like
- Missed a run? The Missed Run Assistant helps you do it today, move it, or swap in a shorter run or a walk
- Make any run a rest day, and change it back if plans change
- Race days and your plan’s structure always stay in place
Run logging
Log every run, your way
No GPS tracking required. Log each session yourself, using the numbers from any watch or app, or none at all.
Ran something that wasn’t on the plan? Log it as an extra run. Planned and extra runs are kept separate, so your plan stays honest.
- Distance, time and pace
- Effort and how the run felt
- Run/walk ratio, notes and a photo
- Pain or niggles, noted with the run
- Drills and exercises you did alongside
Progress
See how far you’ve come
Every run you log builds your training story, from your first session to race week.
- Total distance and time, pace, longest run and your full run history
- Magic Mile history: a timed mile every few weeks shows your pace improving
- Race predictions based on your real race results, with recent Magic Miles and training as supporting evidence
- Journey: the highlights of your training in one place
- A Weekly Summary when each training week wraps up

Common questions
Do I need to download an app?
No. Glass Slipper Run works in your browser on any phone, tablet or computer, so there is nothing to download from an app store.
Can I add Glass Slipper Run to my phone?
Yes. On iPhone, open it in Safari and tap Share → Add to Home Screen. On Android, open it in Chrome, open the menu (⋮) and choose Install app or Install and create shortcut. It then opens from its own icon, like an app; it still needs an internet connection.
Do I need a GPS watch?
No. You log each run yourself: distance, time and how it felt. Use the numbers from any watch or running app, or none at all. Glass Slipper Run does not track your location.
Which races can I train for?
Pick any combination of the 5K, 10K and Half Marathon from a runDisney-style race weekend: one race, two, or all three. Training for the 10K and Half Marathon on consecutive days gives you the 10K + Half Marathon multi-race plan.
How is my plan built?
Enter your races and race date and your plan is built backward from race day. Your training days start as Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday (the multi-race plan adds Sundays for back-to-back weekends). Change your training days and long-run day in Settings at any time and your plan updates to match.
What if I miss a run or need to move one?
Move a run to another day in the same training week, or rearrange the whole week with Edit week (and reset it later). If a run slips past, the Missed Run Assistant lets you do it today, move it, swap in a shorter run or a walk, or take a rest day. Race days stay where they are.
Can I start partway through a plan?
Yes. If your race weekend is closer than the full plan, Glass Slipper Run starts you at the right week and earlier weeks are not counted against your progress.
What is run-walk-run training?
Alternating planned running and walking intervals. It makes longer distances manageable, keeps effort sustainable and suits every pace, which is why it is popular for multi-race weekends.
What is a Magic Mile?
A timed one-mile effort that appears every few weeks in your plan. Your results show how your pace is improving and help estimate your race times. Recent Magic Miles count most; results older than six weeks stay in your history but stop shaping your prediction.
Are achievements only for long-distance runners?
No. Achievements are tailored to your training plan, so 5K runners still get a rewarding progression alongside runners training for longer distances. Bigger totals sit in a separate Long-term Milestones group.
Who can see my profile and runs?
You choose. With a public profile anyone can follow you straight away. With a private profile people can still find you, but they need your approval to follow, and only approved followers can see your runs.
Can I train with friends?
Yes. Follow other runners, see their recent runs on your Home screen, tip them a crown or leave a comment, invite them to join one of your planned runs, and log runs you ran together.
Is Glass Slipper Run free?
Yes. Every plan and every feature is currently free, with no subscription, trial or credit card.
Is Glass Slipper Run an official runDisney app?
No. Glass Slipper Run is an independent project. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Disney, runDisney or Jeff Galloway. Race names are used only to describe the events runners are training for.
