Running coach with 4000+ users on Garmin - now testing on Apple Watch

I'm the creator of Type to Run, that has been Garmin-only for a while now with 4000+ runners and 4.3★ on Garmin's app store. After some initial testing with a limited group, I’m now opening the Apple Watch beta up!

The core feature is Weekly Coach.
It’s an AI coach you chat to, that plans and adjusts your training week by week. In the last few months it's helped me through an Achilles flare-up on the way to setting a new 10k PB, and before that got me my first trail race win. Each week ends with a check-in, where you and the coach agree on next week.

Just want to go for a run?
In the web app you can create single workouts just by typing (”I want a 8k easy run finishing with 6 x 30s strides”) or you can use Instant Run right on the watch. Select for how long you want to run and the type of run (e.g. Fartlek, Threshold, VO2 Max) while you lace up your shoes. In a few seconds you’ll have a custom workout on your watch and can head straight out.

Apple Watch app on TestFlight (WatchOS 11.6 and up): https://testflight.apple.com/join/wjzfyp7u

I'm looking for different types of runners with different Apple Watch models to test all aspects of the watch app. Road or trail. Running by pace, heart rate or power. Structured runners and those who wing it.
