Why Route Pacer

Whether it's your first race or your fiftieth.

A flat-pace finish-time guess works for the world's three flat marathons. For everywhere else — every climb, every hot afternoon, every first race — you need a plan that knows the course in front of you.

Reads your course

Upload your race GPX or pick from our small curated library. Whatever you're running — first 5K to first 100 — we read the actual hills.

Reads your training

Three runs is enough. Your training tells us how you actually run hills — not how fast you can run a flat 5K under perfect conditions.

Reads race day

Hot forecast? High altitude? Tell us, and the plan adjusts — so the splits you take to the start line still work when you get there.

See it in action

Course in, plan out.

Drop in a race file, and Route Pacer reads every climb and descent, runs it against your training, and hands back a split plan you can download and keep. Three steps, about 90 seconds.
