A shared mission
Elite best practices, available to everyone
The full 80/20 Endurance workout catalog — 188 running, 218 cycling, 70 swimming sessions — available to every Smagpie coach. The methodology Matt, David, and the 80/20 team have spent over a decade refining, scaled to every athlete on your roster. That mission is exactly the one Smagpie set out to extend — to high-school cross-country programs, small clubs, and private coaches working with athletes whose budgets don’t reach the platforms where the 80/20 catalog has lived. Same methodology. Same standard of care. A wider doorway in.

What’s in your library
Three sport libraries, on by default
All three are in your library from day one, and each one can be hidden on its own. Coach a HS cross-country team? Hide cycling and swimming and keep running. Coaching triathletes? Keep all three side-by-side on the same calendar. Hiding a library never touches the workouts you’ve already scheduled.

Assign to any athlete
Drop a workout onto your team schedule like any other — Smagpie scales the paces, watts, and pool-pace targets to each athlete's thresholds.
Stay current automatically
When 80/20 updates a workout, your library stays in sync. You don't manage version numbers; you coach.
Why this matters
Putting elite practice in front of more coaches
A high-school XC coach with 22 varsity, 18 JV, and 30 C-team athletes — and a $0 software budget. A small-club triathlon coach who can’t justify per-athlete seat fees. A volunteer coach picking up a team because no one else stepped up. Many of them have read 80/20 Running. They believed in it. The gap was never understanding the methodology — it was implementing it across a JV and a C-team where every athlete has a different threshold pace.
That’s the gap this partnership closes. The thinking comes straight from the 80/20 books. The workouts come straight from the 80/20 catalog. Smagpie does the math — scaling each session to each athlete’s pace, watts, and pool pace — and puts it on every athlete’s schedule. The methodology was already in their hands. Now the implementation is too.
Same standard of care. A wider doorway in.
