Feature
Race day, without the chaos.
Race Day Mode turns your race schedule, checklist, logistics, pacing plan and recovery steps into a focused, phase-based guide for what to do before, during and after your race.

What is Race Day Mode?
Your race plan becomes a live race-day guide.
Race Day Mode brings your checklist, schedule, pacing plan, logistics and recovery steps into one focused view. From the night before to the finish line, Racendo shows the current phase, the next action and the details that matter now.
From night before to finish line
Race Day Mode follows the rhythm of the day.
The screen changes from calm night-before guidance to wake-up and fuel reminders, travel prompts, venue and corral focus, on-course pacing and post-race recovery.
Stay consistent, confirm travel and accommodation, lock the goal.
Calm checklist, gear laid out, sleep and breakfast plan ready.
Eat the breakfast you trained on, hydrate, get bib and kit on.
Leave-by time, transit notes and a tap-through to Maps.
Bag drop deadline, toilet stop, warm-up window, corral entry.
Pace plan, next fuel, effort cue — without doom-scrolling on the line.
Log the result, hydrate, recovery checklist and bag reclaim.
What Race Day Mode shows
One focused view, one phase at a time.
Built for race-day focus
What Race Day Mode brings together.
Instead of opening several screens on race morning, runners get one focused view: current phase, countdown, next action, key context and optional details if they need them.
Every race-day time on a single line: wake, eat, leave, corral, gun.
The night-before list you actually tick off without searching.
Bag drop, transit, accommodation and bib pickup tied to this race.
Goal pace, splits to hit and the strategy you set in advance.
When to eat, when to gel, when to drink — by km, not by guess.
Course notes, start area, cutoffs and rules pulled into one card.
Walk, hydrate, refuel and a debrief prompt within the hour.
Optional nudges from your Racendo Coach for tricky moments.
Less scrolling. Less guessing. Less race-day stress.
Race day is not the time to search through emails, notes, PDFs, calendar entries and screenshots. Racendo brings the important details together before they are needed, then surfaces them at the right moment.
- Know when to eat, leave, warm up and enter the corral
- Keep race logistics tied to the actual race
- See what matters now instead of everything at once
- Follow the plan without opening multiple apps
- Move smoothly from preparation to race execution to recovery
Works with your existing running tools
You don't have to switch training apps.
Race Day Mode is valuable even if you already use another training app. Use it for your race schedule, checklist, travel, documents, pacing and start-line logistics without replacing Garmin, Strava, TrainingPeaks, Runna or any other training tool.
When race day is close, Racendo makes Race Day Mode easy to find.
The Races icon in the bottom nav picks up a calm, animated ring inside the 24 hours before the gun — so opening Race Day Mode is one tap away when you need it most.
What you get
- Phase-based guidance from pre-week through finish & recover
- Current action, next-up and key context — never everything at once
- Schedule, checklist, logistics, pace plan, fuel plan and recovery in one view
- Race-day attention state on the bottom Races tab when gun time is close
- Works alongside Garmin, Strava, TrainingPeaks or Runna — no imports required
