How a run is scored
See how your completed run is compared with its planned session and why some runs correctly have no score at all.
A run is scored only when it can be paired with the planned session it was meant to fulfil. The score answers how well the result matched that prescription; it does not rate the run in isolation.
An unmatched run has no score. That is not a zero, a missed grade or a poor result — there is simply no planned-versus-actual pair to judge.
Precision and completion
An Execution Score — the overall comparison between one planned session and the activity that fulfilled it — combines two questions:
- Precision: did each targeted part land in its prescribed pace or power range?
- Completion: did you cover the planned work, including its distance, duration and repetitions?
Easy running leans more heavily on completion. Quality sessions and long runs lean more heavily on precision, because how you executed the prescribed work matters more there.
Every step with a target is included, not only the fast repetitions. A targeted warmup, recovery or cooldown is judged against its own wider range, while an untargeted rest between repetitions is not assigned a result it never asked for.
When a measurement is missing
If the activity lacks the instrument used for the main target, AgentRunCoach can use the same prescription expressed in the other available measure. For example, a power-targeted step can be judged by its equivalent pace when the run recorded pace but no power. The result says which measure it used.
When the evidence cannot measure or locate a targeted step, that step is shown as no data rather than missed. If the session cannot support a precision judgement, it is assessed on completion alone and says so. If the activity and prescription share no usable measure, there is no score.
Engine result and coach context
AgentRunCoach produces a repeatable score from the recorded evidence. Your coach can then replace the final score when context changes the judgement — for example, terrain, illness or pacing someone else. The contextual score is shown when present; otherwise the repeatable result remains the final one.
Ask your coach
“How well did I execute today's workout?”
“Why does this run have no score?”
“Which parts of the session did I hit or miss?”
