Help & feedback

How it works

Enter your runner's wave, corral and a fastest and slowest likely finish time. The start time fills itself in.
Hover the course to see when they'll pass any point. Click to save it as a cheer spot, then pick which side of the street to stand on.
Share sends spectators a link with your runner's details locked. They can add their own spots.
Print makes a foldable pocket card of your spots.
Add to calendar puts each spot in Apple or Google Calendar, timed for when your runner should pass.
Times are estimates from the runner's plan. On race day, the official app's live tracking beats any estimate.

Privacy

There are no accounts. Your plan (athlete details and cheer spots) lives only in the page's link; it isn't stored on a server. Anyone you send a link to can see what's in it, including the name and bib number.

To learn how the planner is used, this site uses Google Analytics. It records:

Pages viewed and actions in the planner, such as adding a cheer spot, sharing or printing.
The athlete's race, start wave, color, and corral, goal finish range and pacing strategy, and where saved spots are along the course (distance from the start and side of the street).
Your device and browser type, and an approximate location (city and country) that Google works out from your connection. Google Analytics doesn't store IP addresses.

It never receives bib numbers, names, the contents of your plan link or the text of feedback. Google Analytics sets first-party cookies (_ga) to tell visits apart; there are no advertising cookies or ads. Analytics data is kept for up to 14 months.

In the EU, the UK and Switzerland, analytics cookies stay off until you allow them; until then Google Analytics only receives anonymous, cookieless pings. Your choice is kept on this device for 12 months. Anyone can change it here:

You can also block Google Analytics everywhere with Google's opt-out browser add-on or a content blocker.

Feedback you send is sent to the developer and used only to improve the site. Include a way to reach you only if you'd like a reply.

Map tiles come from OpenFreeMap, and the site's pages from its web host; like any web server, they see your IP address when you load them.
