Hal+ can combine adaptive plans for preparation toward several races. The iOS and Android app includes GPS tracking for pace, effort and mileage, with statistics, charts, summaries and calendar views. Run data can sync from Garmin Connect when a run is saved as a Run and synced there. The app can be downloaded and used for free, while Hal+ adds adaptive features. Paid subscriptions include a two-week premium trial. Hal+ monthly costs 6.99 USD per month; annual costs 59.99 USD per year.
