Segment pace excludes stop time at previous stations.

  1. 1 A pace window per segment, not just one race pace.
  2. 2 Four ETAs per station: front pack, fast, slow, and the cutoff you must beat.
  3. 3 Crew & drop-bag flags mark what's waiting for you at each stop.
3.3

Plan your gear and nutrition

Create a list of nutrition and gear needed at each aid station.

  1. 1 Quantities per station — down to the lone banana. The packing list builds itself from these.
  2. 2 Gear moves with you: pick up the headlamp where dark actually catches you.
3.4

Share with your crew

Send your crew a link so they can track and update your progress on race day.

Fig. 04 / Crew Timeline
  1. 1 Every station's arrival window, drawn to scale — the box is your fast–slow plan, the whisker runs front pack to cutoff.
  2. 2 Cutoffs marked in red so your crew can do the math before you can't.
3.5

Run your race

You or your crew can start the race whenever you do, and track your progress live.

Fig. 05 / Race Day
  1. 1 Actual vs predicted, live. The green line is real check-ins — crew sees you running ahead of plan and every downstream ETA adjusts.
