About our Runner's Journal
Why choose a physical running journal when I already use a digital app or a smartwatch?
Digital apps are great for raw metrics, but they miss the human side of running. Sometimes they add extra social pressure to what is meant as a time for yourself and your body.
Our Runner's Journal aims to be a private space to capture your state of mind, energy levels, and personal wins—especially on the hard days that might not make it to social media.
Is the Runner's Journal suited for beginners or advanced runners?
Both! Whether you are logging your very first continuous kilometer or training for a milestone race, the prompts focus on personal progress, emotional reflection, and consistency rather than speed.
In what language is the content of the Runner's Journal written?
The Runner's Journal is written and available only in English.
How many runs can I log in one journal?
Each A5 journal includes structured templates for over 35 individual runs, along with dedicated pages for setting intentions, tracking weekly distances, and recording monthly reviews.
How long does it take to log one run?
It only takes a few minutes! Fill out your pre-run mood and intention before stepping out the door, then spend a few minutes after the run logging your feelings, thoughts, and metrics. We recommend that you review your notes once every month, taking some time for yourself, noticing progress and identifying patterns. You can log this into the monthly review section.
Should I choose the flat-lay spiral binding or the book binding format?
In some countries, we can offer both styles: wire-O binding or PUR binding. If both are available in your region, the choice is up to you! The wire-O allows for a 360 degree rotation and a lay-flat option, making writing easier. The PUR book binding gives you the choice for a lighter journal, that fits beautifully into any bookcase.
What's the difference between Kineia Journals and other running journals?
Most running journals are either blank notebooks or basic metric logs. Kineia's Runner's Journal is fully guided and designed specifically for runners, with:
- Goal-setting pages to map out your training goals and targets.
- A running calendar to schedule and plan your runs.
- Prompted reflection space to log your thoughts before, during, and after each run.
- Training non-negotiables section to track your personal habits and commitments.
Every prompt is pre-written for you, so logging a run takes just a few minutes — no staring at a blank page trying to figure out what to write.

How does your print-on-demand model work?
Instead of mass-producing items, we print your specific journal only when you purchase it. By choosing this approach, we reduce waste and lower our carbon footprint. Your journal is printed and shipped directly from our printing partner nearest to you. Because we craft your journal individually, it might take a little extra time to prepare.

It takes about 2-3 business days for production of the journal, plus an estimate of 3-7 business days for the delivery, depending on your location. However, keep in mind that actual shipping times may vary depending on local postal services and peak seasonal demands.
We recommend you to plan your purchase with enough anticipation if you intend to use this as a gift.
