Race strategy guides

Guides

Pacing, fueling and tactics — grouped by sport. Start with the calculator for your sport, then read the matching guide.

Each guide turns one race problem — pacing, fueling or station tactics — into concrete numbers you can act on. Pair them with the tools: the HYROX calculator, the GPX race plan and the marathon pace predictor.
