Is the work paying off?

Week six, and you can't tell if it's working. Here's a straight score for each sport against your own best, how tired you really are, and this block laid over the build before your best race.

What it does

Are you ready? A score for each sport, how tired you are, and the gap to your goal.

Readiness per disciplineA score out of 100 for swim, bike and run. It's built from load, volume, VO2max, efficiency and consistency, and compared with your own best.

Acute and chronic loadFitness, Fatigue and Form, so you can see whether this week is building you or burying you.

Training comparisonPick any past race. We draw its lead-up against your current block, with the old block's average dashed in.

Pace-gap tableEach leg's goal split next to where you're projected to land today, and the difference.

Your own baselineScores are relative to your best, not to a population. 80 means 80% of you.

Spoken summariesEvery chart has a text summary for screen readers, and for people who prefer words.

Fitness vs Fatigue vs Freshness

Three lines, one question

Fitness is your chronic load, Fatigue your acute load, and Freshness the difference. When Fatigue runs well above Fitness for long enough, something gives. When Freshness turns positive in race week, the taper worked.

You can adjust the chronic and acute windows on the Triathlon logic page.
Dry tooltips included.

Race ready

Fit isn't the same as ready.

The headline number is now about your race, not just your form.

On pace for your goalWith a goal time set, the score is 100 at or under goal and drops as your projected finish gets slower. It's the projected finish that counts, transitions included.

Where the time will come fromThe time still to find is shared across swim, bike and run by headroom: the legs where your form sits furthest below your own best have the most to give.

Illness and injury countRate how rough it is, day by day. Readiness takes the hit, an injury hits its own sport hardest, and the drag fades over the days it should once you've recovered.

Where you need to be

The pace gap, leg by leg

Race coming up and you're not sure where you stand? Set a goal. The table puts each leg's goal split next to where you project today, and shows the gap. It shows the pace you need, not a training load you're supposed to hit.

Projected from recent efforts, recency-weighted.
Updated as new activities arrive.
Green means you're ahead. Red means there's work to do.

Twelve weeks out from Mossel Bay

You pick last season's Mossel Bay as the comparison. The orange line, this block, runs just above the blue one most weeks. The dashed average says you're already above last year's block.

The pace-gap table says the bike is 1:30 behind goal and the run is 40 seconds ahead. So the next four weeks get more bike, and the run stays as it is.
