Quick Complete
One-click completion marks the workout as done using the planned values (target distance and estimated duration). An intensity zone is automatically assigned based on the workout type.
Manual Entry
Log your actual distance, duration, and perceived effort. Pheidi maps your effort rating to an intensity zone for tracking purposes.
Post-Workout Feedback
After each workout, you can rate the session: Too Easy, Just Right, Tough, or Too Hard. This feedback helps Pheidi understand how the plan feels relative to your fitness.
"Not Today" Rescheduling
Can't run today? The Not Today action finds the nearest rest day later in the same week and moves the workout there. If no rest day is available, the workout is marked as Skipped.
Completion Tracking
Only run workouts count toward your completion percentage. Skipped workouts are tracked separately with no penalty. Messages are always positive and non-judgmental:
- ≥ 90% — Outstanding!
- ≥ 80% — Great consistency!
- ≥ 70% — Solid work!
- ≥ 50% — Every run counts!
