Plan from season to session
Press S and the calendar folds into a season: 6 or 12 months, one row per week. Drag across weeks to draw a block, give it a phase, drop your races on it with an A, B or C priority. Each week shows the duration and load done and planned, with the form you are heading for.
- Phases: base, specific, taper, recovery, competition
- Weekly load against a recommended range
- Form projected over the sessions still to do
Bars: weekly load (TRIMP), every fourth week lighter
Planned vs done
Planned vs completed, matched automatically
When your run arrives from the watch, it lands on the session planned that day. If you swapped days, drag the activity onto the right session, or pick one of up to three suggestions. A coloured strip then tells you how close you were to the plan, on duration or distance.
- Wellness on each day: sleep, HRV, resting HR, Hooper index
- Week totals: duration, distance, elevation, load
- Optional rule: a session only counts with an RPE or a comment

Life happens
Illness, injury and travel periods
Drag across the days you will not train and pick Illness, Injury or Travel. The period is drawn hatched on the calendar. If it covers sessions still to do, OpenAthlete asks what to do with them: move them after the period, or delete them.
From Claude or ChatGPT, "I've had a fever since yesterday" does the same through the MCP server, then adapts the next sessions. MCP server
