RunClever Ratings© is the state of the art system to allow every standard run by an individual to be compared to every run they have ever done, and for that matter that anyone else has ever done. It takes into account factors such as time running, distance covered, temperature, elevation, elevation profile, surface, height and weight and how they affect one another over the course of your run. Based on this information, our system provides a rating for your run between 1 and 140, with 140 being the perceived limit of human physical ability.
By far the most intellectually demanding piece of work we did to set up the RunClever Academy was creating a tool that could analytically take apart any run done by any person and provide 2 unique ratings based on speed and cardiovascular ability. All you need to do is track your run with any standard GPS based app such as Strava or Runkeeper and send it to your coach. Your coach will then use our system, inputting your height, weight, run length, run time, elevation, elevation profile, surface and temperature etc. to provide you with a rating for each of your runs. After 3 runs you will be given an official RunClever Rating©. Then if you are competitive or inquisitive, you can opt-in to our leader board and compare your rating to others and be in with a chance of winning prizes every month.
Your rating history will be available on your profile page so you can view your progress or show it off to others. After the number of runs start to rack up, you or your coach may start to be able to identify what distance or type of runs you are naturally better at (it’s all to do with those muscle fibres!).
