Disclosure and health disclaimer

Last updated: November 8, 2026

How Faster5K makes money

Right now, it doesn't. Everything on the site is free. We plan to offer personalized training plans for a fee in the future. Those will be clearly labelled, and you'll always see the price before buying.

Affiliate links

We don't currently use affiliate links. If we add them in future (for example, to running shoes or watches), we'll label them clearly on the page where they appear and update this disclosure. A commission never changes what we recommend.

Daily Workout

Faster5K and the Daily Workout app have the same owner. When we mention Daily Workout, we say so.

Health disclaimer

Content on Faster5K is general information for healthy adults, not medical advice, diagnosis or treatment, and not a substitute for advice from a qualified professional. Running carries a risk of injury. Consult a doctor before starting a new exercise programme, especially if you have a medical condition, are pregnant, are returning from injury or illness, or haven't exercised in a long time. Stop exercising and seek medical help if you experience chest pain, faintness, severe breathlessness or other worrying symptoms.

Calculator accuracy

Our calculators use published formulas and are tested against worked examples, but predictions are estimates. Real results depend on training, terrain, weather and many other factors.
