Built for track athletes and the coaches who train them.
Seventeen events. Race-specific calculators. Lane assignment strategy, stride patterns, breathing protocols, and the words of the athletes who own the records — all on-device, no account, no tracking.
Generic running apps give you a stopwatch. SplitStrategy gives you a race plan — built from the splits the world records were set with, tuned for the event you're actually running.
— What sets it apart from the dozen pace calculators already on your phone.
No setup. No login. Open the app, pick your event, and start planning.
17 events from the 60m through the 10,000m, including all hurdle variants and the steeplechase. Each one tuned for how that race is actually run.
Type your goal time. The app auto-distributes your splits, or you can tap "Suggest Splits" to cycle through ideal / even / conservative pacing templates.
Verdicts grounded in the actual coaching frameworks — Thorson's 5% rule for the 400H, Cheptegei's negative-progression model for distance, Rudisha's +2.5s 800m. Plus alternates if your plan isn't optimal.
Six layers of race-day insight, per event, all on-device.
Goal time + your planned splits → verdicts (negative · even · ideal · standard · aggressive) tuned per event. Alternates surface when your distribution isn't optimal.
200m, 400m, 400H, 300H. Per-lane pros and cons — including which lanes the world records were actually set in (van Niekerk's lane 8, Johnson's lane 3).
Real quotes and tactical notes from the athletes who set the records — Bolt, Warholm, McLaughlin, El Guerrouj, Kipyegon, Mu, Cheptegei, and more.
For hurdle events: pick your stride pattern. 13L / 14L / 15-step / step-down options based on published coaching frameworks (Thorson, McGill, Ross).
5–6 phase cues per race (PUSH / FLOAT / HOLD / FIGHT / FINISH) and a race-day breathing protocol per phase. Voice playback on every cue.
Don't know where to start? Tap a chip and the app fills your splits with an ideal, even, conservative, or negative-split pacing template. Tap again to cycle.
From the 60m to the 10,000m — every individual track event has a calculator tuned for the way that race is actually run.
SplitStrategy was extracted from one screen of Elite400M and built into a focused tool for every event. If you train across distances, the rest of the family is built for you.
The 400m specialist app. Training plans, workouts, race strategy — focused entirely on the quarter mile. Train the 400. Turn pain into power.
