Adjust Your Running Plan When Your Week Changes

Step by step

1. 01

   Choose the dates that have changed

   Open Plan → Change this week and choose a period from tomorrow through the next fourteen days. Select No running, No training, Less time or Fewer running days. Select Choose individual days for eligible moves, club runs and other-sport choices.

2. 02

   Compare running and strength together

   Choose Preview changes. Compare each affected date under Planned and Preview, including any strength changes, and open Why these changes for the reasons. Nothing has changed yet. A requested move may be rejected by the existing plan limits. Completed or started sessions stay in history.

3. 03

   Accept the version you want

   Choose Accept temporary changes to save this preview, or Edit these choices to revise it. If you are loosening a saved limit, the button is Remove limits & continue; follow the fresh-review prompt before adding training back. If your plan or feedback changed, preview again. With the professional-coach approach, the app requires you to confirm that your coach reviewed the change. Your usual settings and goal stay saved. Eligible changes can be undone while the surrounding plan and activity still match. Today’s existing session continues to use its check-in and review.

Missed a run? Check the record first

An empty completion is not proof that a run was skipped. Review Recent movement, pending imports and any matching recorded run first. Correct or link a record when appropriate. A temporary change edits upcoming availability; it does not complete a past session or move a past skip into the future.

Example: a missed Tuesday and an unavailable Friday

Invented example of using the app. On Wednesday, Alex confirms that Tuesday was skipped and knows Friday is unavailable. Assuming an accepted active plan, no blocking hold and no earlier temporary limit on Friday, Alex opens Change this week, selects Friday in both date fields and chooses No running, then Preview changes. An eligible unstarted Friday run appears as rest in the preview; this choice does not add a replacement elsewhere. Alex checks the dates and any strength impact before choosing Accept temporary changes. Tuesday remains skipped.

Moving an upcoming run is a separate choice

To request a move, include both future dates in the selected period. Choose individual days, open the date of the existing run and use Move this run. The destination needs to be an eligible free day under the app’s plan limits. Preview changes before accepting: the original day becomes rest, and the moved session does not add running minutes. If the request is rejected, edit the choices; selecting a date does not guarantee a move. This workflow cannot move a past skipped run.

Want to run on a planned rest day?

When eligible, Today shows Want to run today? Complete any missing check-in there. VOXX can move a suitable upcoming easy or run/walk session within seven days to today, making its original date rest. Review both dates and any strength changes, then choose Use this schedule or Keep my plan. A past skip stays skipped; no extra running is added. Recovery limits can rule out a move. Illness does not create a make-up run. Choose a fresh optional route after accepting.

Review the week before changing the next one

Open Plan → Review future weeks → Preview your plan. The review separates what was recorded, what it means and the actual session changes. Expand the evidence or full schedule when useful. If Something isn’t right, correct the record or check-in, then choose Refresh weekly review. Confirm weekly review keeps unchanged sessions; Accept & update plan saves changes. A recovery hold has its own explicit action. The core review works offline without a wearable; online AI explanation is optional.

Read the dates behind the totals

Recorded running shows the last seven completed local days, with run count and dates. Today is still in progress and is excluded. Open 4-week planning details for the dated weekly totals and planning median, a middle value rather than the latest week or a four-week average. The details show whether planning uses your estimate or confirmed history. Missing records are not proof of no running.

Returning after a temporary change

When the period ends, or you remove a limit, use the current check-in and review a fresh outlook. Old sessions do not return automatically. Check Recent movement and pending imports before treating a run as missing.

For a longer break, use Manage plan

Pause or end the plan when that better reflects your situation. Completed activity stays in history. Returning opens a fresh review, and any required check-in is available within setup. A new plan needs your acceptance. Injury-related returns follow their own companion flow, with your treating professional’s instructions.
