Tagging your races

Add reusable labels to race results, filter trends with them, and rename a label across your history without splitting the group.

Tags let you group race results by a condition or theme that matters to your own history.

Use short labels such as altitude, windy or trail when those races form a comparison you expect to revisit. A course name and location already have their own fields, so keep those structured details there unless a broader tag is genuinely useful.

Adding labels that will stay useful

Ask your coach to add one or more tags to a recorded result. Tags are saved in lowercase and can be reused across races. You can then list races or request a trend using one of those labels as the filter.

A tag does not adjust a finish time or fitness value. It gives you a way to select the relevant results before you interpret them. For example, an altitude trend still shows the performances as recorded; it does not convert them to a sea-level equivalent.

Renaming a tag everywhere

Renaming is a history-wide change, not an edit to just one race. If you rename colorado to altitude, every race carrying the old label moves to the new one.

If the new name already exists, the two groups merge rather than creating duplicate labels. Races that already had both still end with one copy of the merged tag.

Choose the group before you compare

Tags are most useful when they answer a repeatable question: races at altitude, trail races or tune-ups. A one-off note about how you felt belongs in the race notes instead of becoming a label you never use again.

Keeping tags consistent

Before inventing a near-duplicate, ask your coach to list the tags you already have. Prefer one stable form instead of variants such as wind, windy and windy-day.

Tags are optional. Distance, course and location filters work without them, and an untagged result still appears in your full race history and all-races trend.

Ask your coach

  • “Tag this race altitude and windy.”

  • “Show me every race tagged trail.”

  • “Rename my colorado tag to altitude; merge them if altitude already exists.”
