Running and triathlon calculators

Three calculators that answer the questions every race plan starts with: what your fitness predicts, what paces to train at, and what a goal time asks of each leg. They run on the same math the Endurance by Design app uses, so the numbers here are the numbers your plan would be built on.

Why the numbers match the app

Each calculator mirrors a rule from the Endurance by Design plan engine: the 1.06 exponent that projects one result to another distance and to a one-hour threshold effort, the five threshold-anchored run zones, the FTP zone midpoints, and the swim, bike and run shares of a triathlon finish. A result you get here is a result the app would agree with, which is the point of showing it. The science page explains where each rule comes from.

From a number to a plan

Numbers are the start. The plan is the work.

Endurance by Design builds a periodized plan backward from your race date with your paces on every session, then adapts it to how training actually goes. Free to download on the App Store, with a 7-day free trial.
