Deliver structured training programs from base building to race day
Marathon training follows a proven arc: base building, long run progression, speed work, peak weeks, taper, and race day. Kaido's program builder lets you structure that arc into defined phases with the weekly targets and session topics that guide every runner consistently. Build it once, assign it to every marathon training client.
- Build training programs with phases from base building through taper
- Each phase has defined weekly mileage targets and workout types
- Runners see the full training plan from week 1 to race day
- Reuse the same program template across every marathon training client

Assign weekly workouts runners actually log and complete
Consistency is everything in distance running. Kaido lets you assign weekly workout tasks with due dates: the long run, the tempo, the easy recovery miles. That keeps runners accountable to their training schedule between coaching sessions. You see completion before every call and know exactly who is nailing the plan and who needs support.
- Assign specific weekly workouts as trackable tasks with due dates
- Runners mark workouts complete from their Kaido dashboard
- Due dates aligned to the training week build consistency
- See training compliance before every coaching call

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about using Kaido as a running coach.
- Can I build a marathon training program in Kaido?
- Yes. Create a 16, 18, or 20-week marathon program with phases for base building, progressive long runs, speed work, peak training, and taper. Assign it to every new marathon client as a consistent, reusable framework.
- How do I assign weekly workouts between sessions?
- You create tasks with specific workout details and a due date, for example: '18-mile long run at easy pace' or '6x800m at 5K effort'. Runners see their weekly workout list in their Kaido dashboard and mark sessions done when complete.
- Can I manage runners training for different distances and races?
- Yes. Yes. You can have separate program templates for 5K, half marathon, and marathon training, and assign whichever fits each new athlete's goal. Each runner gets their own independent program and progress tracking.
- Can I keep notes on each runner's performance and training response?
- Yes. Yes. Private session notes let you build a longitudinal record of each athlete's training: how they're responding to load, where fatigue is accumulating, what pacing adjustments to make. Searchable and organized by session.
- Can runners self-book check-in calls when training gets hard?
- Yes. If you enable self-booking, runners can schedule a call within your availability. Useful when an athlete is struggling mid-block and needs guidance before their next scheduled session.
