Updates and improvements to NavRun
Your phone is about to become your running command center.
We scaffolded a native mobile shell for iOS and Android using Capacitor, along with push notification infrastructure powered by Firebase. This is the foundation for a proper NavRun mobile app — same features you love on the web, but with real push notifications landing on your phone. More to come here soon.
Ultra runners, we see you.
We raised the maximum race goal time from 24 hours all the way to 200 hours, because 100-milers and multi-day events deserve first-class support. The analytics page now includes a 4-bucket elevation distribution chart, lower gates for ultra-specific metrics, and informational tooltips for 50K+ distances. We also added duration, elevation, and time-on-feet charts so you can track the numbers that actually matter for long efforts. And yes, the BQ goal progress bar is still there for you road racers chasing Boston.
We replaced fake charts with real data — and your analytics are better for it.
Honest moment: those CTL/ATL/TSB fitness charts were using placeholder data. We ripped them out and replaced them with a real weekly training summary table that reflects your actual training load. The analytics page also got a plain-language summary at the top, an adaptive profile metric, and a milestone tracker so you can see your progress at a glance. We hardened the page against edge cases too — better sync status indicators, data freshness labels, and guards for when your training history is thin.
Your race detail page now shows where you've run the course before.
Course familiarity is here. When you view a race, you'll see a coverage card showing how much of the course you've already trained on, plus a colored map overlay highlighting familiar and unfamiliar segments. Prediction cards use your course history to give smarter finish time estimates, and an interactive map lets you click gaps to see exactly where you need more training. We also wired course familiarity into your analytics predictions, training plans, and weekly reports — so every part of NavRun gets smarter when you know the course.
Activity list and detail pages: upgraded across the board.
Your activity list now shows elevation gain, a This Week stats card, a weekly bar chart, streak indicators, BQ pace deltas, and real pagination. RPE badges appear inline so you can scan effort levels at a glance. On the detail page, we fixed GPS track rendering, added splits pagination with a swipe hint, and now display your Strava activity name. Your race strategy pages got course-matched pacing with color-coded rows, too.
Home dashboard — now actually usable on your phone.
We overhauled the home page layout for mobile: the calendar view renders cleanly on small screens, the sidebar no longer overlaps your content, and weekly summaries with elevation data and streak counters are front and center. We also fixed the UltraSignup race search API and resolved several stability issues that were causing timeouts and errors for some users.
Course familiarity lands on your race page.
The first piece of our course intelligence system is live: your race detail page now shows a coverage card and colored map overlay indicating which sections of an upcoming race course you've already run. This is the foundation for smarter race predictions and strategy — more coming soon.
Your dashboard numbers are now running-only — no more inflated stats from bike rides.
If you cross-train with cycling or walking, those activities were sneaking into your running stats and making your weekly mileage look... optimistic. We fixed that. Dashboard and activity statistics now filter to runs only, so your numbers reflect your actual running volume. We also improved how plan revisions detect taper weeks, using real data instead of guesswork.
Meet Course-Matched Race Predictions — your past runs now predict your race times.
This is a big one. NavRun's new prediction engine finds past runs you've done on courses similar to your upcoming race — matching terrain, elevation, and distance — and uses them to generate more accurate finish time predictions. No more generic calculator estimates. Your predictions are now grounded in your real running on real courses.
Your crew, your pacers, your drop bags — all on one printable sheet.
Race day logistics just got organized. You can now add aid stations to any race with elevation chart annotations and three-scenario arrival time estimates (with cutoff buffers). Add per-mile notes, plan your crew and pacer handoffs, and generate landscape PDF cards for race day. Pin these to your drop bags or hand them to your crew — everything they need to support you, on one page.
Race strategies now account for running through the night and 50+ miles of fatigue.
Ultra runners get smarter pacing. Race strategies now model nighttime pace penalties and cumulative fatigue drift over long distances, with per-mile weather forecasts based on your actual start time. The split table was redesigned with six columns and callout cards so you can see exactly what to expect at each stage of your race.
Your weekly reports now ask how your body actually felt.
We added a body feel rating to weekly reports — a simple check-in on how your runs felt beyond what the numbers say. Reports also include YTD season stats, multi-week insight threading (so the AI remembers what it told you last week), and a predictive training load forecast. We built training zone indicators, easy-pace policing that flags when your easy runs are creeping too fast, and an alert-to-revision pipeline so injury risk warnings can trigger a recovery plan adjustment with one tap.
