About Taperly

Race week is two problems at once: the things that still have to be done, and the doubt about whether enough has been done already. Taperly answers both by working backwards from one date, your race.

• A day-by-day plan for the week before the race
• Packing lists organised the way the race organises them, by transition bag
• Checklists for race week, the night before and race morning
• Your race details in one place: times, courses, documents, forecast
• Works offline, because start areas have no signal

Taperly is not a training app. It does not write your training plan, count your intervals or replace TrainingPeaks, TriDot or Garmin Connect. Those handle the months of work. Taperly handles everything between the last hard session and the start line.

There is an unrelated app also called Taperly, at taperly.app, which helps people taper off habits. It is a different product from a different developer and the two have nothing to do with each other. This Taperly is the triathlon one, made by Dot Systems, and it lives on this domain.

The app is out on the App Store and free to download. Everything on this site stays free, runs in the browser and needs no account.

• Race checklist: every task, race week and race day
• Packing list: what goes in which bag
• Races: 83 races, dates and courses
