Run Week Distribution Planner

Distribute easy runs, quality sessions, long runs, and recovery days across a week while considering your available running days.

Direct answer: Build the week from the running days you actually have, place long and quality roles first, then use the remaining slots for easy running and visible recovery.

Weekly roles

Available running days

Why Run Week Distribution Planner is useful

A running week contains several roles that compete for the same calendar slots. This planner starts with availability instead of assuming every day is equally usable.

Long and quality roles are placed first so that lower-priority easy work does not accidentally consume the most valuable spacing.

How the tool works

The app checks whether your requested roles fit your available running days. It then places the long run, spreads quality sessions away from the selected long run where possible, and fills the remaining slots with easy running.

Common mistakes and interpretation

Use the output as a transparent planning aid, not as a measurement of fitness or a guarantee of performance. Keep planned workload separate from completed workload, use consistent definitions, and change the inputs whenever the schedule becomes unrealistic.

Frequently asked questions

Can I plan fewer sessions than my available days?

Yes. Unused days remain visible as recovery or non-running days.

Does it set mileage?

No. It distributes session roles rather than prescribing distance.

Can I use two quality sessions?

Yes. The tool will place both using the same spacing heuristic.
