Comments on Ascend for Android

★★★★★ Josh Perizzolo · Feb 16, 2023
Jon and his team provide a unique and customizable structured training program for runners to reach their goals. The support through the app, flexibility of training schedule and training commitment option make it suitable for everyone regardless of their experience or time availability. A great option for a low cost compared to a one-on-one coach/trainer or 'off the shelf' program.
★★★★★ Chris Johnstone · May 24, 2025
Superb training tool for trail running with concepts and approach developed and supported by world-class professional athletes and a hands on and responsive development team. Community around the app also great
★★★★★ Ralph Sampson · Mar 16, 2026
Amazing training app specifically for trail runners. Highly recommended to anyone training for a trail marathon or ultra marathon.
★★★★★ James Pearce · Jun 9, 2025
A great training app for trail runners. It has enough flexibility to mold your week around the plan and your life which I find the other apps fail to do.
★★☆☆☆ Chris Smith · Aug 10, 2022
The look and feel is really good, but I can't use the app because I am stuck in the Intro tutorial with no way to exit. The speech bubbles cover up some of the buttons they are telling you to press, then it becomes impossible to continue beyond the core workout because the 10-second timer doesn't count down. The 'Exit Tutorial' button does nothing.
★★☆☆☆ Kieren Geaney · Nov 7, 2022
Unusable UI - "helper" box covers buttons. I would have liked to try the app but the helper white box covers buttons, so I can't exit or move on some sections. Being able to move or close the white face box would improve usability

Description by Albon App AS Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
AlbonApp is now Ascend. The app designed for trail runners and shaped by the trails.

Become a faster, stronger trail runner with intelligent training that adapts to you. Whether you're preparing for a vertical kilometer, a rugged mountain ultra, or your next weekend adventure, Ascend creates a plan tailored to your current fitness level and future goals.

Train smart and run strong with trail-specific coaching, metrics, and tools. Sign up risk-free for 14 days!

Developed by elite trail runners, Ascend was born from a real need: training that truly works for the trails. Our groundbreaking Running Impact tool eliminates the guesswork from load management by measuring how each run mechanically affects your body – not just how far you went.

Beyond just a running plan, you'll get cross-training options, strength routines, strategy sessions, prehab protocols, fueling guidance, and more. This isn’t a one-size-fits-all program – it’s a complete toolkit for trail runners who want to train with purpose and arrive at the start line ready.

Why trail runners choose Ascend

Built Around Running Impact, Not Just Distance
Trail running isn’t flat or predictable, and neither is your training load. That’s why our unique Running Impact metric tracks the mechanical stress of each run, helping you train smarter, lower your injury risk, and measure real progress based on what truly matters.

Adaptive Training That Evolves With You

Forget one-size-fits-all. Ascend delivers personalised training plans that adapt in real time to your evolving fitness level and goals. By analysing your workout history and integrating insights from Running Impact, Speed, and Cardio, our multidimensional model creates a truly tailored plan.

Build Cardio Without Compromising Your Running

Cross-training matters, but it shouldn’t skew your running goals. Ascend plans and tracks cardio training separately from running, ensuring your run progress stays visible, focused, and realistic.

Trail-Smart Metrics & Insights

Train with purpose using trail-specific analytics. Monitor your vert ratio, grade-adjusted pace, effort zones, and training progression over time. No fluff – just clear, actionable insights built specifically for trail runners.

Fully Adaptable. Fully Yours.

Plans should flex with your life. Move workouts, adjust your weekly training load, or add bonus sessions. Ascend comes with expert-backed recommendations, but you stay in control.

Every Piece of the Trail Puzzle

From strength training and prehab to fueling guidance and session tips, Ascend goes beyond a running plan. It’s a complete trail training toolkit designed to support you every step of the way.
The Human Touch

Questions? We’ve got answers – from real trail runners and world-class athletes, not bots. Whether it’s a training tweak or a race-day strategy, get guidance from people who’ve been there before. Because real advice beats algorithms.

COMPATIBLE DEVICES
Ascend syncs seamlessly with Strava (no premium account required), so your workouts and metrics are logged automatically – no extra steps needed.
