How it works

Common questions

What is the trail run effort calculator?

It turns amount, times into a trail run effort figure you can read in one sitting. Use it as a guide, not a diagnosis.

Does this replace my GP?

No. The maths stays in your browser. Speak to a GP if you are worried about your health.

Can I treat the number as a target?

Treat it as a planning figure. Real weeks wobble. If a goal feels extreme, stop and get proper advice.
