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.

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

Your race has the preparation it needs.

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.
