Plan your running week
Plan runs up to two weeks ahead. Build a workout in a few taps. ourpr pushes the plan the morning you run it. Then it reads every rep against your target.
How do you plan a week of running?
Your week is a row of seven days. A day you ran shows its miles. A day you did not shows a plus. Tap the plus on a future day. Set the distance. The run lands on that day. You can plan two weeks ahead.
How do you build an interval workout?
Open the workout row. Tap a distance: 100m, 400m, 800m, 1mi or steady. Each tap adds one rep. Tap 800m three times and you get 3 x 800m. Tap 400m next and a new block starts. The session reads top to bottom, in the order you run it.
Can you set a target pace for the reps?
Yes. Every rep block takes a target and a recovery. A target shows the time for the rep. It also shows the pace per mile. 800m in 2:50 is 5:42 per mile. Runners think in both.
What do easy, speed, tempo and long mean?
A tag says what kind of day a plan is. It is not the run’s name. The name is the specific thing. The tag is the kind, and you can count kinds across a week.
- Easy
- Most runs. Talk in full sentences.
- Speed
- Once a week. Short fast repeats with a jog between. Try 8 x 400m.
- Tempo
- Once a week. Comfortably hard for 20 to 30 minutes.
- Long
- Once a week. Your longest, kept easy. Add race-pace miles to make it a workout.
Does ourpr remind you about a planned run?
On the day, ourpr sends one push at 05:30 your time. It names the run and the workout. A workout day also gets a push the evening before, between 19:30 and 22:00. You prepare for a workout the night before. An easy day gets no evening push.
What happens after you run it?
Your run arrives from your watch through an archive import. You can also log it by hand. Then every rep reads against your target. The week shows what you planned beside what you ran. A planned figure always carries a planned label. ourpr never mixes it into a measured one.
What about the gym and the bike?
ourpr reads runs, rides and gym workouts. A run reads in pace. A ride reads in speed. A gym workout reads in sets. Today you plan runs. We are building the same for the gym and the bike.
Do you need a subscription to plan?
No. You plan for free. Bring your training in from a Strava, Garmin, Coros or Suunto export, or any GPX file. Export all of it again whenever you want.
Planning sits on the home surface, beside your weeks and your runs. See what else ourpr does, or read a course before you race it.
