🏔 Trail running season planning

Your trail season,
finally organized.

Cimea is the planning tool built for trail runners. Prioritize your races, visualize your preparation on a timeline, stay on top of registrations and leave nothing to chance.

Cimea is a web application for planning your trail running season. It is designed for runners who want to structure their annual calendar using a race hierarchy approach (A, B, C goals), calculate available preparation weeks between key races, manage registrations and visualize their season as a graphical timeline.

Everything you need for a successful season

Tools designed by a trail runner, for trail runners.

A / B / C hierarchy

Classify each race by importance. A goals structure your season, B races are your preparatory events, C races are low-key participations. Each category has its own planning rules.

Graphical timeline

Visualize your entire season on an SVG timeline. Bubbles are proportional to effort, colored bands show preparation weeks (green) and recovery weeks (orange).

Smart alerts

Cimea monitors your schedule and alerts you: upcoming registration deadlines, date conflicts, missing data, problematic overlaps.

Race wishlist

Keep a list of your trail dreams ranked by priority. Schedule a race directly from your wishlist when the time comes.

Preparation weeks

Automatic calculation of available weeks between two A goals, after deducting recovery weeks. Set your own thresholds.

Bilingual & responsive

Full interface in French and English. Light and dark theme. Desktop, tablet and mobile.

How it works

Up and running in less than 5 minutes.

Add your races

Create your list with dates, distances and elevation gains. Indicate whether you are registered, add your target times.

Set your priorities

Classify each race as A, B or C. B races automatically link to their next A goal.

Manage your season

Follow the alerts, check the timeline, archive completed races and adjust your plan throughout the season.

Made for you if…

  • You are preparing for one or more ultra-trail races (UTMB, TDS, Diagonale des Fous…) and want to structure your season around these goals.
  • You run 5 or more races per year and lose track of registrations and date conflicts.
  • You want to visualize your season load and make sure you have enough preparation weeks before each goal.
  • You have a race wishlist and need a place to organize them and decide which ones to prioritize.
  • You plan across multiple years and want to see the continuity of your preparation from one year to the next.
  • Your coach or training partner wants a clear overview of your season.

Nutrition strategy
Plan your nutrition strategy race by race: caloric intake, refueling frequency, products per segment. Generate a summary sheet to take with you on race day.
Pacing strategy
Set your target pace per segment based on elevation. Visualize your race breakdown and adjust your strategy to aim for the perfect time.
Time prediction
Estimate your finish time on a new race based on your past results and course characteristics. The more you race, the more accurate the prediction becomes.

Frequently asked questions

How do I plan my trail running season with Cimea?

Add your goal races (A priority), then your preparatory races (B priority). Cimea automatically calculates preparation weeks and alerts you if your schedule has issues.

What is an A, B, C race?

An A race is your main goal. A B race is a preparation or test race. A C race is a low-key participation with no performance objective.

Is Cimea suitable for trail running beginners?

Yes. Cimea is useful as soon as you have more than one race per season. Advanced features are helpful for experienced runners, but the basic views remain accessible to everyone.

Can I manage seasons across multiple years?

Yes. The timeline handles cross-year seasons: if you are preparing for a race based on a race from the previous year, the preparation continuity is displayed across both annual blocks.

Is Cimea free?

Yes, completely free. Create an account in seconds to get started.

Does Cimea work on mobile?

The web app is responsive and works on mobile via the browser. A native iOS/Android app is currently in development.
