What's inside
Run-tracking that respects the science
Pace, distance, duration
Log a run by typing "ran 4 miles in 38 minutes easy." Running workouts logged to Apple Health on iPhone, including from Apple Watch, Garmin Connect, or Coros (any source that writes to HealthKit), flow in automatically.
Average heart rate per run
Each run captures average HR alongside pace and distance. Coach Elias reads the pace-vs-HR pattern week to week and flags when your easy days are running too hot.
Pace + HR context
Pace and average HR are the cleanest aerobic-base signals we capture today. Elias talks through what they mean run-to-run.
Weekly mileage chart
Daily and weekly mileage trends with goal lines. Elias coaches volume ramps in chat.
Race time predictions
A Race Predictor card models your goal-distance time (1mi through 50K) from your recent run history and flags confidence. Race-day plans and structured taper templates are coached through chat with Elias.
Recovery-aware coaching
When HRV craters or sleep is short, Elias adjusts what he recommends for the day. Same data layer Max and Lauryn read.
In the app
80% boringly easy
Most app-tracked runners run their easy days too hard and their hard days too soft. Coach Elias draws the line. He reads your run log, average HR per session, and the pace pattern week-over-week, and calls you out when you run the same pace on Tuesday tempo and Wednesday recovery.
Pace at the same average HR is the cleanest single indicator that your aerobic base is improving. That conversation lives in chat with Elias, who reads the run-by-run history.
For race prep, Elias thinks in 4-8 week training blocks: build, stress, recover, sharpen. He’ll talk through which block you’re in and what the next session should accomplish, and walk you through taper week as race day approaches. Following a couch-to-5K running plan or building toward a marathon, the blocks adapt to where you are.
Sync your runs from Apple Health and every session, from Apple Watch, Garmin, or Coros, flows in with pace and average HR already attached.
