Follow New articles New articles and comments
  • My "trained at" elevation/temperature is incorrect in the Race Power Calculator
  • What are the factors which will affect the Race Power Calculator result?
  • Why is the result from the Race Power Calculator different from the max power for that duration indicated by my Model Curve on the Power Duration Curve?
  • Why are longer distance race predictions accurate for me, but shorter distance race predictions are overly optimistic? Or vice versa?
  • Why is the prediction for an official course dead-on for me, but too pessimistic for my own course?
  • Does the Race Power Calculator take my Running Stress Balance into account? Is it projecting my future performance after a taper? 
  • Does the target power include Air Power if you have the new Stryd (with wind detection)?
  • How are elevation, temperature, and humidity I trained at determined? How do I change those factors?
  • How can I improve upon my recommended power target result from the Race Power Calculator?
  • Why is the shortest distance 1500 meters? Why is the longest distance 50k? How can I predict performances for shorter races or ultra marathons?
  • Does the Race Power Calculator work for the previous generation Stryd?
  • My course has steep sections. Why is it rejected when I try to upload it?
  • I am using a Suunto/Polar watch. Why are my race times inaccurate?
