Race season planner

Do your races work together? Every verdict comes from the course facts and from how much of one race's preparation carries over to the next. Nothing is saved unless you keep it in your account: your season lives in this page's address.

Check in before the next block

Future blocks are provisional. Report a recent completed seven-day week and how recovery feels before starting one, or after a break. Planned sessions are never proof that you completed them.

Your running: 45 km/week · 22 km longest · 5 days · mixed terrain · some experience

Running time estimated from distance; add completed time for a better starting point · completed-week date unknown. Running time excludes strength.

Suggest starting information from my imported runs

Read your last six complete calendar weeks. Choose a representative week and confirm that all its runs were imported. This suggests completed time, distance and known climbing/descending; it cannot infer recovery, exercise familiarity or future availability.

Your race fits the calendar. Preparation still needs confirming from completed training.

Course, cutoffs and race-day guide

Starting evidence incomplete

Enough calendar weeks can support a draft. They do not establish that the course, finish cutoff or performance goal is achievable.

Course demands and preparation still to confirm

Course: 8 km; climbing unknown; descending unknown. Finish cutoff unknown here; check the current official race guide. No finish-time margin has been established.

Reported completed running: time unknown; longest outing time unknown with date unknown. Week ending unknown; weekly climbing unknown, descending unknown. These are starting evidence, not completed future training.

A finish goal needs course preparation and cutoff margin. A performance goal additionally needs demonstrated current fitness; this season does not infer it from planned volume.

Before relying on this block, confirm a recent dated completed week; completed running and longest-outing time with its date; complete climbing and descending course facts; recent climbing, descending and downhill familiarity; current official cutoff information. If preparation or available time falls short, choose a shorter course or later goal.

There is time for a full build before this one.

The 8 weeks before it — a full build Enough
5 wk building for this race
6 wk is a full build for you (shorter than the generic 8 weeks because you run 45 km a week, far above the 12 km this distance assumes)
1 wk tapering, racing or recovering — building nothing

Your training

12 weeks, starting this week
Starting point and future weeks

Future weeks depend on training actually completed and normal recovery. Check your recent running and terrain exposure again when the next race block approaches.

  • Time may be inferred from distance. Future weeks are conditional; update completed running, terrain and recovery at block handovers.

Keep this season in your account

Then one calendar follows every change you save to your settings, a pause included, and the season opens on your other devices. Without an account the season is this address: its calendar follows race dates, but a change to your settings needs a new link.

Draft season: at least one race date is an estimate and has not been confirmed with the organiser. The plan re-anchors when it is. One coherent season: each demanding race gets its own build, taper and recovery; shorter races are placed inside a build. Recovery spacing and carry-over are reviewed product conventions calibrated against our reference plans, not physiological measurements. Planning guidance from course facts and your stated training — not medical or coaching advice. Recovery spacing, how much preparation carries over, and how many climbing weeks a course asks for are our own reviewed conventions — inspectable, and not measurements of your physiology.
