### 1/5 — No need for this app

*2025-03-18*

This app does not help you prep for a triathlon. It needs someone with triathlon knowledge to add some coding and AI component.

The user has to add in the speed they want to go and the app breaks  that speed down into time per mile. It does not take into account weather and wind speed and direction or power per individual so it’s horribly inaccurate. It does allow you type in your fueling needs but even that just uses basic math to compute what you need each hour. 

Way better platforms out there

**Developer response:** Thank you for taking the time to post a review of RaceDay. I’m sorry that RaceDay failed to meet your expectations especially regarding power tracking. Power tracking will be included in the future. However, as a startup app, we are doing our best to focus on initial features which we believe are critical to triathletes.  Of course,  we will continue to design and test additional features in future versions. We would welcome an opportunity to work with you on features (e.g., power tracking).

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-08-10*

Doesn’t work simple as, keeps crashing

### 5/5 — Really helps …

*2024-01-11*

With race selection, training and getting a true assessment of my readiness. Easy to over estimate “oh I can easily finish before the swim or bike cutoff times” but when you enter the details of pace, transition time etc … you really see where the rubber meets the road with this app.

### 1/5 — Can’t verify email

*2024-01-04*

Takes hours to get email from app to verify email. Email comes and code is not valid. Tried to resend code and same thing happens.

### 5/5 — Pretty Handy App

*2023-12-15*

I have plugged information into this app for a couple of reverse sprints and found it to be pretty interesting. I admittedly had no idea what I was doing the first time (about 8 months ago), but now understand and appreciate the available features. The weather was accurate, which helps quite a bit, and the checklist is a nice feature (you can’t lose it!). I wish we could reverse the order of the legs (but that’s so rare that it’s really not anything urgent), and there are just so many nutrition options available (including real food) that it would be helpful to be able to manually add nutrition that’s not already in the database. The developer is awesome, and I have no doubt that this app will continue to improve and be indispensable.

### 5/5 — Filling a Need

*2023-12-05*

This app is designed to take all the stress out of race day. It’s really great to see all your details in one place - like weather, in relation to pacing.

I appreciate the nutritional consideration, because I struggle with that. It’s a major help, especially for long races. 

The checklist makes it easy to sleep the night before!

### 5/5 — Perfect app

*2023-09-26*

I am a newbie and will be running my first triathlon soon. A friend turned me on to Race Day so I gave it a try. It was so easy to plug in my information and it immediately goes to work and shows me my goal time. I was concerned about my nutrition and that section took the mystery out of it. I am so grateful this app exists and wish I had discovered it sooner.

### 1/5 — Worst Race App of them all

*2023-08-05*

Out of all the race apps I’ve tried this one is the clunkiest and least intuitive of them all. You have to enter all the data and at best you get a PDF printout. Other apps let you push to your Garmin for live help in the actual race. 
This app also assumes you race solely on MPH. Power has been the go to for many years.

### 5/5 — Takes the stress out of race planning

*2023-02-02*

I just entered the details of my upcoming race and it’s so cool how Race Day helps plan out all of my nutrition and pacing. There’s even a a packing checklist that you can modify so that you don’t forget anything come race day.

### 3/5 — Was a 5 star

*2022-07-14*

It was great and now I can’t input any upcoming races. Nowhere to ask for customer service. Maybe if someone reads this they can help me.

**Developer response:** Hi this is Bill Hoolihan the creator of RaceDay. I'm terribly sorry. There is no logical explanation for not being able to create a race. Please email me at Bill@myraceday.net and we can do a zoom etc to fix.
