The Pit Wall on an iPad: minus zero forty-two in green, the word AHEAD, RUN 3, and an amber message reading HOLD PACE.
The Pit Wall. Whoever came to watch reads this from across the road.

The one interaction

Press and hold. That's it.

You leave the sled and press anywhere on the lower two-thirds of your Watch. No menus, no small buttons, nothing to aim at with wet hands and a heart rate of 180.

The split is timed the instant your finger lands, so the hold costs you nothing — and a brush of the wrist against your vest releases early and changes nothing at all. Undo and missed a split live one scroll up, each behind its own deliberate hold.

It runs on the Watch on its own, inside a real workout session, so the screen stays yours for the whole race and the race lands in Fitness afterwards.

The activity, the segment clock, ahead or behind in words, the total. One press per split, standalone, always on.

Build the plan, check you are ready, and read the race back afterwards — segment by segment, with what the table proves.

Send one link. Your supporters get a live board they can read at running speed, and a word they can put on it.

How it goes

Plan it. Race it. Learn from it.

The race plan screen: a target finish of 1:20:00 split across sixteen segments, with a running total that says ON TARGET.

One

A plan that adds up

Set a finish time and split it across eight runs and eight stations. The total is always shown, and it always adds up — nudge one segment and the rest rebalance.

Race day: three checks — race plan complete, watch, supporter — above the target time and a START RACE MODE button.

Two

Three checks, then go

Race morning is a checklist, not a setup screen. Plan, Watch, supporter. Then your wrist takes over and the phone can stay in the bag.

Where the time went: a line showing ahead and behind through the race, over a table of target, actual and difference for every segment.

Three

Where the time went

Every segment against its target, and the two or three facts the table actually proves. One tap turns that into the next plan.

Race the plan you made
