## What is RACO?

RACO – Race Optimizer is a race-intelligence app for hybrid fitness racing: 8 × 1 km runs, each followed by a station.

• Race prediction from your own numbers, split by run, station and transitions
• Goal gap: exactly how much time to find, and where it is
• Path to your target: milestones and the changes that get you there
• Simulator in your first week: try "what if my sled push was 20 seconds faster?"
• Week-by-week training plan with exact exercises, built from a qualified coach's program, on the days you choose
• Log workouts and races; see your progress and a weekly review
• First race? Readiness steps, station guides and race-risk tips instead of a time goal
• Race-day pacing plan with clock times for every run and station
• Works offline; training reminders; sign in with Apple, Google or email
• Invite friends: every 5 friends who subscribe earn you a free month of Pro

RACO Pro (monthly or yearly subscription):
• Each next training week adapts to how your last week went, what you logged and what you tell it (busy week, sore legs, travel)
• Ask the AI coach about your numbers
• Keep the race simulator after your first week, and save every scenario

Payment is charged to your Apple ID. Pro renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period; manage or cancel in your App Store account settings.
