What's New

Post-run celebrations, mid-week check-ins, and a smarter plan revision experience.

After your runs sync, you'll now see a celebration modal with AI-generated feedback. Mid-week, you'll get a check-in email reviewing how your plan is going. When your plan does get revised, the new visual diff shows exactly what changed in a clean inline format. We also built skip-this-workout recommendations (evaluating five signals before suggesting you rest), cross-week adaptation logging, and skip reason tracking for missed workouts.

Race search, grade-accurate plans, and terrain annotations are here.

Finding races got easier with a new search experience. Your training plans now use a polynomial Grade Adjusted Pace formula, so hill workouts reflect the actual effort required. Race courses pull terrain annotations from OpenStreetMap, and key miles get specific coaching cues with three-pace split tables. We also added elevation and time-on-feet to weekly reports and built recovery week revision logic with recommendations.

Casual runners and comeback kids, this one's for you.

We made the dashboard more welcoming for runners who aren't chasing PRs every week. There's now a weekly streak tracker to celebrate consistency, welcome-back messaging when you return after time off, and gentler language throughout. Whether you're running your first mile back or your thousandth, NavRun meets you where you are.

Your Strava profile picture is now in your navbar.

We pulled your athlete name and avatar from Strava, so you'll see your face in the top corner and on your preferences page. We also built the Course Data Foundation: you can upload GPX files, and NavRun will parse elevation profiles, render route maps, and generate per-mile data tables. This is the backbone of everything course-related coming next.

Honesty update: we replaced placeholder data with the real thing.

We swapped out fake injury alert previews and fake weekly report previews with honest descriptions of what these features actually do. Your ACWR (training load ratio) now shows real TRIMP values with per-run detail, and consistency milestones come with confetti. We also added canonical URLs to fix duplicate page issues, milestone celebration emails, and grade-aware deviation detection that accounts for hills when evaluating your workout accuracy.

Race day strategy cards you can actually hold in your hand.

The new race day strategy feature generates a complete pacing plan with AI, including a downloadable PDF race card. You'll find entry points on your dashboard and race list. Pair this with the injury risk alert system (detection engine, email notifications, dashboard cards) and auto plan revisions (AI-powered schedule adjustments when you're deviating from your plan), and NavRun is now actively watching your back.

Weekly AI training reports have arrived.

Every week, NavRun's AI reviews your training and sends you a personalized report breaking down what went well, what needs attention, and what to focus on next. Reports are delivered by email and archived in the app with detailed views. Dashboard cards give you a quick glance at your latest report without leaving the home page.

NavRun Pro is here — and your first features are already unlocked.

We soft-launched NavRun Pro with a feature gate system. Pro subscribers get access to AI training reports, race strategies, injury alerts, and auto plan revisions. You'll see Pro badges, trial onboarding flows, and tasteful upgrade prompts throughout the app. The navbar was reorganized into five meaningful groups to make room for everything new, and we added a health check endpoint so deploys happen with zero downtime.

Subscriptions, pricing, and your Pro upgrade path.

We built the full subscription system: a pricing page, no-card-required trial checkout, a customer portal for managing your billing, and Pro badges throughout the app. Trial banners keep you informed about your trial status, and the upgrade showcase page shows exactly what you get with Pro. Feature gating ensures free users see what's possible and can upgrade when they're ready.

Strava sync is now rock-solid under pressure.

We fixed a cascade of issues that could cause sync storms when Strava's servers were under load — webhook handling now gracefully queues retries instead of hammering the API. We also fixed pace data overflows, auto-sync retry loops, and routing errors that were causing silent failures for some users. The preferences page loads faster too.

Follow us on Strava, and say hello to the NavRun Pro era.

We kicked off the NavRun Pro milestone and added a Follow on Strava button to the about page. Big things are coming in the Pro tier — stay tuned.

A proper About page, and behind-the-scenes reliability fixes.

NavRun now has a personal About page with the founder's runner story and photo. Feature pages got a visual refresh to match the landing page's dark theme, and we added ultramarathon to race prediction references. Under the hood, we fixed a database connection issue that was silently killing background tasks and cleaned up some configuration quirks.
