Ability to have recurring goals

Former Member
Former Member
The ability to set up recurring goals is an absolute must. The ability to have a weekly or monthly goal that automatically starts over every week/month is extremely motivating.

For example - I'd like to set a goal of running 15 miles every week or 60 miles of biking every week. I should be able to set these to automatically happen each week - without going through the trouble of restablishing a new goal every single week.

The "goal" feature is seriously missing usability without this feature.

    Agree that this would be a useful thing to add. It was the first thing I tried to do with the goals when I saw them.

    I am with you on this! It should be a pretty easy thing to add. Please add this functionality!

    Same for me! Doing this manually right now.

    I'm looking for a way to enter a goal of something like a "30 mile week" or "26.2 mile run", with only having to set an end date. If my goal is to run a marathon this year, there is no current way to configure that on the site, is there?

    Indeed, there's no way to do that.

    Couldn't agree more

    I have to say, it's extremely frustrating to finally log in and set up the account...only to have that there's no way to set a goal as common as a future marathon.

    I am a bit flabbergasted, to be honest, that this website for such a versatile device (I love running with it) has only THREE preset possible training periods to use. You can't even simply type into the calendar on a future day "blah blah marathon - 3:30 finish".

    A simple feature to easily set recurring goals would be a step in the right direction. However, for such a personalized experience, I don't see how it could be that difficult to allow for what seems to me to be a simple and basic feature.
  • Share your calendar

    I to would love recurring calendar goals. Also it would be nice if you could set up a complete training program and share it with others. This way you could fast get a training calendar created by a friend and just another GC user, who are an expert in creating good running programs.
