One practice, different ability groups
Build a workout once, schedule it for a sprint or distance group, and keep each athlete's target visible. Create varsity and JV groups when those are useful for your roster.
Pace CommandHIGH SCHOOL RUNNING PROGRAMS
A clearer practice for every high school runner.
Your varsity and developing runners share a track, not the same pace target. Pace Command helps high school sprint, distance, and cross-country coaches plan group workouts, give athletes individual targets, and keep the practice record together after the final rep.
Every feature · No credit card required · Pricing from $19/month after trialSpend less practice time chasing records.
From the first roster upload to the last workout of the season, a school program needs a reliable handoff between coaches and athletes.
Split timing tied to the workout
Use the multi-athlete practice timer or enter times manually. Save each rep and split to the athlete's training history instead of reconstructing the results after practice.
Clear responsibilities for the staff
Organize men's and women's rosters, invite assistants, and scope their coaching access to the appropriate groups. Share the workout before practice and keep staff aligned on the plan.
An athlete and parent view
Athletes can see assignments, recorded times, and training feedback. Head coaches can invite authorized parents or guardians to separate, view-only athlete accounts.

Frequently asked questions
Can varsity and JV runners have different workouts?
Yes. Coaches can create training groups, schedule different sessions, and use individual pace targets within the same group workout.
Can parents see their child's progress?
Head coaches can invite up to two authorized parents or guardians per athlete to view-only accounts. Parents must accept their invitations; they cannot edit workouts or performance records.
Does Pace Command include throws, jumps, or official meet management?
No. This product is focused on running practice and training history. For field-event and broader track program workflows, explore Track Command. Official meet-registration and electronic timing systems remain separate.
Can we move our roster from a spreadsheet?
Yes. Coaches can import a supported CSV roster after setting up their groups, review the preview, and invite athletes to activate their accounts separately.
Can our school try it before purchasing?
Yes. New teams get a 14-day trial without a credit card. A head coach chooses whether to start a paid team plan afterward.
