PaceKit - Race Coach

Don't guess your race. Know when water and hills are coming, long before you get there.

PaceKit gives real-time guidance through your headphones so you can stay on pace, avoid mistakes, and run your best race. Works perfectly with your music and ducks volume natively. Built by a runner who needed it mid-race.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Pick your race (or start a Quick Run).
2. Put in your headphones.
3. Run.

TRAINING Build a custom, personalized training plan from scratch, using your course's information as the anchor.

• Built to train specifically on runner's specific pain points per your course
• Chat with your coach to change, reschedule, or get the reasoning behind your plan
• Strength exercises recommended for your specific course (hilly= different exercises than flat, etc.)

ON RACE-DAY You'll hear exactly what matters, when it matters:

• Where aid stations are
• Hills coming up? You'll know before you bonk.
• Landmark and neighborhood callouts with fun facts about the area
• Talk back to your coach while you run (and you should)

Just ask "where's the next aid station?"

PICK YOUR COACH 6 coaches, 6 personalities. Pick the voice that fits how you run.

• The hype man who's got you all the way
• The hard coach who won't let you slack
• The chill guy who keeps it low-key
• The one(s) who roast you the whole time

QUICK RUN Not racing today? Take your coach anywhere. Same personality, same talk-back, any route. No race required.

WHY IT WORKS PaceKit was built on your actual race course. Your coach knows every mile before you run it:

• Every turn on the course
• The full elevation profile: every hill, downhill, and the hardest climb
• Every water station, aid stop, and porta potty along the way
• Historical splits from the runners who came before you
• Where the crowds pick up and where they thin out
• The neighborhoods you'll run through and what to expect
• Ground surface, shade coverage, and wind exposure on supported courses

All you have to do is run.
