01 · THE TRAINING BLOCK

Every run, one timeline

JRNY pulls your Strava runs into a week-by-week timeline for Sydney Marathon. You see the block taking shape, whatever plan you're following: a coach, a book, your own, or one you've pasted in. Add tune-up races and see how this block compares to a past marathon.

  • Week-by-week timeline with countdown and tune-up races

  • Bring any plan. Upload it to see what's ahead, or just sync and watch the block build

  • Volume, long runs, and compare against a past marathon

02 · RACE PREP

Sharpens into race day

As race day gets closer, JRNY shifts to race prep. For Sydney Marathon, that means route, elevation and weather. Set your goals, build a race-morning timeline, and use our course finder so friends know where to be.

03 · COMPARE

Compare your Sydney block with a past marathon

Line up your Sydney block against a past marathon, aligned by weeks to go from race day, so taper sits over taper and peak over peak. Two lines, the numbers beside them. JRNY shows you where you are. You read it. Once you've got a past marathon in JRNY, Compare does the rest.

  • Aligned by block position, not calendar date

  • Volume, long runs, heart rate and weekly average

  • Your call on what it means
