UltraRace Pal: Your Ultimate Ultra Marathon Companion

Hi, I'm Greg Williams, an avid ultra trail athlete. I created UltraRace Pal to address the essential needs of ultra marathon runners like myself. This app is packed with features designed to enhance your race preparation and in-race strategy, ensuring you're always ready to tackle any challenge on the trail. No internet connection required to use.

Key Features:

Elevation Visualization Chart: Instantly access detailed elevation charts to identify upcoming vertical climbs. Prepare efficiently by consuming extra carbs 15 minutes before major ascents, maintaining optimal energy levels.

Aid Station Locator: View a comprehensive list of aid stations along with their distances from your current location. Manage your water and nutrition intake better, adjust your pace, and avoid running out of essentials. Ditch the paper notes for seamless digital tracking.

Offline Data Storage: UltraRace Pal uses a JSON file for data storage, so you don't need an internet connection. Your race data is always available, whether you're in the wilderness or a remote area.

Packout Checklist: Ensure you never forget essential gear with the built-in packout list. Perfect for pre-race packing and in-race reference, this feature keeps you organized and race-ready.

Water Calculation Tool: Accurately calculate how many miles you can run based on the water you're carrying. Plan your hydration strategy effectively, reducing the risk of running out of water during the race.

Gel Calculator: Determine the exact number of energy gels you need to pack. Input the race distance and your estimated race time, and UltraRace Pal calculates your total gel requirements. Rely on your own supplies or supplement with aid station provisions.

Nutritional Tracking: Save and monitor your hourly intake of sodium, carbs, water, and calories. Detailed tracking ensures you maintain optimal nutrition and hydration levels throughout your race.

Finish Time Calculator: Estimate your finish time by entering your planned pace per mile/km. UltraRace Pal calculates your total race duration, helping you set realistic goals and strategize your race plan effectively.

Aid Station Markers on Elevation Chart: Aid stations are clearly marked on the elevation visualization chart, providing a quick reference to their locations relative to the course's terrain. Plan your nutrition and hydration strategy with precision.
