Trail running and ultra
Mountain trail preparation: 12 weeks of training
Mountains add elevation gain, altitude above sea level and long descents that hit your legs harder than the climbs.
- Training horizon
- 12 weeks

- 450 ₽ per month or 4999 ₽ per year
The first 7 days are free, no card needed. No automatic charges: the subscription renews only manually.
Mountain trail preparation over 12 weeks starts with studying the course: the length of the climbs, the nature of the descents and the altitude of the route. You need endurance on the climbs, leg stability on the descents and a realistic assessment of your experience. If you live on flat ground, some of the work can be done on stairs and an incline treadmill, but that does not replace getting to know mountain terrain and acclimatisation.
The 1trAIner AI coach takes into account your fitness, schedule and access to hills, a gym or mountain routes. Data from a Garmin or Apple Watch syncs automatically. After every workout the plan is recalculated based on your training load; it is worth telling the coach separately about heavy legs after descents.
The first weeks are devoted to base endurance and tolerance of terrain, then the share of work similar to race conditions increases. Progress is assessed by how you distribute your effort on the climbs and recover after the descents, not only by pace. The first 7 days are free, then the subscription costs 450 ₽ per month or 4999 ₽ per year. There are no automatic charges.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a sports watch?
No. You can start without one: the plan is built from your answers about your goal, level, and available time. With a Garmin or Apple Watch, accuracy is higher — the coach sees your heart rate, sleep, and actual weekly volume.
What happens after the free week?
The subscription costs 450 ₽ per month or 4999 ₽ per year. There are no automatic charges: your card is not saved, and renewal is only manual via the link in the reminder.
Is the coach a person or a program?
1trAIner is an informational service: plans and reviews are prepared by AI based on your data. This is not a medical service and not a substitute for a doctor or an in-person coach.
What if my goal changes?
Let us know in the chat. Right now the plan is built for the goal “Mountain trail preparation: 12 weeks of training”, but moving a race, an injury, or a vacation is normal: the coach will recalculate the cycle for the new conditions.
