# /race — Race-Day Strategy
Builds a comprehensive race-day plan for the athlete's target race. The user may specify a race or default to the one in their athlete profile.
## Step 1: Read knowledge base
Read these coaching files for expert protocols:
- `knowledge/race-execution.md` — pacing, ADAPT framework, aid stations
- `knowledge/taper.md` — taper check, sharpening
- `knowledge/nutrition.md` — cal/hr, carb/hr, fluid targets, Bullseye plan
- `knowledge/heat-altitude.md` — environmental preparation
- `knowledge/mental-performance.md` — associative/dissociative strategies, crisis protocols
## Step 2: Gather data
Fetch data using MCP tools (call them directly, in parallel where possible):
- Fitness endpoint for the last 21 days — CTL/ATL/TSB trend into race day
- Events endpoint for the next 14 days — remaining workouts and taper check
- Activities endpoint for the last 30 days — recent training volume and long runs
- Wellness endpoint for the last 7 days — sleep, HRV, fatigue trends
Read `athlete/profile.md` for race details (distance, elevation, cutoffs, key cutoffs) and cached zones.
## Step 3: Build the race plan
### Pacing Strategy
- Estimate finish time range based on current CTL, recent long run performances, and race profile
- Break the race into segments (e.g., by aid station) with target pace ranges
- Flag any tight cutoffs given projected pace
- Account for elevation — slower on climbs, faster on descents, with specific pace adjustments
