Pacing Plan

GPX 1.1 supported. Waypoints become aid station markers.

What you get

Set a target finish time — get pace, arrival clock time and cutoff buffer for every aid station, adjusted for climb and fatigue.

How it's calculated

  • →Grade-adjusted pace (GAP): a Minetti energy model turns each climb and descent into flat-equivalent effort — you slow on the ups, speed up on the downs, automatically.
  • →Fatigue fade: your decline rate (default 18%) runs you a touch faster early and slower late, like a real race.
  • →Trail factor: road 1.0 · fire road 1.15 · technical 1.25 scales every segment for terrain.
  • →Hits your target: the solver back-calculates the base pace so every segment adds up to exactly your goal finish time.
