The approach

Weather-adjusted race intelligence,
not guesswork.

Most runners plan their pacing in a vacuum. Stride Forecast quantifies what the data actually shows — how temperature, humidity, and conditions shape finishing times for runners just like you.

01

Historical Patterns

We analyze years of race results alongside historical weather data to identify how conditions have shaped performance at your specific race — not generic advice, actual numbers from actual finishers.

02

Performance Models

Regression analysis quantifies the real cost of a hot morning, an aggressive first half, or conditions you're not trained for. The data tells the story; we present it clearly.

03

Race-Day Predictions

As your race approaches, we publish forecasted-weather analysis so you arrive with a pacing strategy calibrated for the conditions you'll actually face — not the ones you hoped for.

What we cover

Built for the runner who did the training.
Now wants to race it right.

Past Weather Patterns

Multi-year analysis of race-day conditions at destination marathons. Understand what "typical" looks like at your race — including the bad years.

Performance Analysis

Quantified relationships between conditions and finish times. How much does a 10°F temperature rise cost the average runner? We've modeled it.

Pacing Strategy

Data on how early-mile aggression multiplies weather penalties. Conservative pacing in heat isn't cautious — the numbers show it's just correct.

Pre-Race Forecasts

Published in the days before major races — weather-adjusted outlook with scenario planning so you're not making strategy decisions on race morning.
