How do I add a casual run?

Updated

Choose New run, then Casual run. Drop in a GPX, FIT or TCX file or bring a route in from Strava, give it a name, choose Every week or Once, and set the start time and your pace. Choose Save the run, and its weather at your pace opens straight away.

Add it

  1. Open Runs and choose New run:
    • On the web: sign in at runfast.tech/app.
    • In the iPhone or Android app: the Runs tab.
  2. Choose Casual run: “A route you run, once or every week, with its weather at your pace.”
  3. Fill in the form, in this order:
    • The route: drop in a GPX, FIT or TCX file, or bring it in from Strava. See route files and connecting Strava.
    • Name. It comes from the file; change it if you like.
    • When: Every week, then tap the days, or Once, then pick the date.
    • Start time.
    • Your pace. See setting your pace.
    • Email me its forecast the evening before: on, or switch it off. See the evening-before email.
    • Where it starts and Notes, if you like.
  4. Choose Save the run. Its forecast opens.

Mapped it in Map your run already? Tap Save there instead, and the route, start time and pace come with it. See mapping a run.

Change or delete it

Open Runs and tap ⋯ on the run’s card:

  • Open the forecast at your pace.
  • Copy the link to send it to someone (runfast.tech/r/…).
  • Edit to change the name, days, time or pace, or replace the route. What is it? at the top turns it into a race.
  • Delete removes the run, and its link stops working. This can’t be undone.

Who can see it

Anyone you send a run’s link to sees its route and weather. Runs you bring in from Strava stay private to you.

A casual run has no live tracking. To let people follow you, make it a race. See casual run or race.

Running it with your club?

If it’s one of your club’s runs, don’t add it yourself: tap I’m in on the club’s page and it joins your runs. See joining your club’s runs.
