LONDON, 18 November: Runna, the world's top-rated running coaching app that creates training plans backed by expert coaches, has been selected by Google Play for two Best of 2025 awards. From today, the app will be recognised as:

• Best for Personal Growth in France
  
  
• Best Everyday Essential in Brazil and Mexico

Google Play highlights apps that offer meaningful value and consistently deliver their core purpose. Runna’s personalised, adaptive training plans - built on guidance from experienced coaches - reflect this standard, leading to its inclusion among this year’s award recipients. In September 2025, Runna translated their entire in-app experience into 7 new languages - including French, Brazilian Portuguese, Spanish, German, Japanese, Dutch and Italian.

Key highlights:

• In France, the Best for Personal Growth award validates Runna’s impact in enabling users to build confidence, progression and sustainable habits through running.
  
  
• In Brazil and Mexico, the Best Everyday Essential distinction shows how Runna has become a go-to app for building fitness into users everyday.
  
  
• Following the recent localisation of the Runna app into seven languages, this multi-region recognition of the platform is indicative of its growing visibility on an international scale.

Dom Maskell, CEO, Runna said: “Winning these awards across multiple markets is a real milestone for us just over two months after translating our app into non-English languages. We want to continue to make high quality running training more accessible for everyone worldwide by combining human coaching insight with best in class technology and help more people discover the joys of running all over the world. Thank you to Google Play for recognising our efforts in France, Brazil and Mexico.”
