Step 1 — Pick your tier

LIFETIME (Live Updates): Best value. Your plan stays current as SPC improves progressions and cues.
-
NOW (Static): Fixed edition of today’s plan. No future content updates.
Step 2 — Pick your level
-
Beginner – Newer or returning; building consistency.
-
Intermediate – Training regularly; chasing steady improvement.
-
Advanced – Higher load/tolerance; aiming for strong PBs.
(If unsure, choose the easier level—you can always progress.)
Step 3 — Pick how the plan is delivered (your metric)
-
Heart Rate (HR) – Great for steady control and pacing on mixed terrain.
-
Pace – Clear/minute targets on flat routes or treadmill.
-
Power – Most precise on hills/wind (requires run power or
-
cycling power meter).
-
RPE – Train by feel; perfect when devices/HR aren’t reliable.
Note: Some plans are only available in certain formats but we are rolling out new plans daily (e.g., Pace/HR but not Power). Availability is shown on each plan page. If a format isn’t listed, it isn’t supported for that plan (yet
