Give runs a type and set speed groups

Owner, EditorChecked 23 October 2026

Each run or event can have a type. It shows as a label next to the date on your club page. You need the Editor or Owner role.

Set a type

  1. Open the date from the Schedule and choose Edit, or add a new date.
  2. Choose from Type.
  3. Choose Save (or Add it for a new date).

Running clubs can choose Club run, Social, Speed work, Hills, Tempo, Long run, Marathon training, Beginners, Trail, Recovery, Race or Meeting. Cycling clubs have their own list, such as Road ride, Café ride, No-drop and Chaingang. The list is fixed: you can't add your own types.

A new run starts with the same type as the run before it. Copy to next season keeps each run's type.

Speed groups (cycling clubs)

Cycling clubs can set speed groups. Running clubs set pace groups instead: see Set up pace groups for club nights.

  1. Open Settings.
  2. Under Details, fill in Speed groups, for example "A 30 chaingang, B 25, C 20 no-drop". That's a name, a speed in km/h and an optional note, separated by commas.
  3. Choose Save the details.

The club page shows an estimated ride time for each group. To give one ride different groups, fill in Speed groups when you add or edit that ride. Leave it blank to use the club's usual groups.
