Trail and ultra plans that read your terrain.
Vertical-gain progression, descent-eccentric loading, fueling rehearsal, and back-to-back long-run blocks — rebuilt every day from your Strava and Garmin data. See your first week before you pay. €9.99/month, cancel anytime.
Vert that matches your race
Weekly climbing volume ramps toward your goal D+. The plan knows the difference between a 30K with 500m gain and a 30K with 2,500m.
Long runs that build durability
Time-on-feet progression with rolling and technical terrain. Back-to-back weekend blocks from week 8 for ultra distances.
Fueling rehearsed, not improvised
60–90 g/h carbs tested on every long run for races over 90 minutes. The reason most ultras end in a walk is a gut you didn't train.
A trail season, climb by climb.
Base aerobic volume → climbing strength → race-pace + technical descents → taper. The app adapts to your weekly vert and the specifics of your goal race.
- Base — Aerobic volume + easy vert
- Build — Hill repeats + climbing tempo
- Peak — Race-specific terrain + descent loading
- Race — Taper + race-week protocol

Trail running and ultramarathon training with Garmin: vert progression, power hiking, and building the aerobic base for your first 50K
Trail running requires a completely different training framework from road running — time on feet replaces pace, vertical gain replaces distance, and power hiking is a performance skill. Here is how Garmin data applies to trail and ultra preparation, from grade-adjusted pace to back-to-back long runs.

Running economy and cadence optimization: how to use Garmin form data to run faster without training more
Your Garmin already measures cadence, ground contact time, stride length and vertical oscillation. Most athletes never use this data. Here is how elite coaches turn those numbers into a measurable economy improvement over 6–8 weeks.

Overtraining prevention for endurance athletes: how to use Garmin HRV and training load data before it's too late
Overtraining syndrome can erase months of fitness in weeks. Here is the data-driven playbook serious runners and triathletes use to detect overreaching early — using Garmin HRV trends, training load signals, and weekly metrics — and how a remote coach catches it first.
