Why Two Questions Are Enough
Training profile selection is preferenced to your initial training goals. Your weekly hours tell us how much you train. From those two inputs, the app can derive everything Sequorr needs to present a user model focused experience from the first session.
The more you use Sequorr, the more Sequorr learns more from your actual behavior — what activities you track, how often you train, what your HR zones look like, where your fitness sits. The profile is the starting point. Your input takes it from there.
This article explains what each profile type actually signals, and how the onboarding flow works from first launch to your first tracked activity.
The Four Profiles
General Endurance
This is Sequorr's broadest profile. General endurance athletes train for fitness, not for a specific race. You might run three days a week and cycle on weekends, or you might walk and hike every other day. Progress and consistency are the goals.
Road Running
This is Sequorr's most structured profile. Road runners — whether training for a 5K, a marathon, or a 100-mile road ultra — are pace-driven. We're orderly in our approach, structured to training plans. Sequorr athletes have access to their threshold pace, VDOT score, and session builder.
Trail Running
Trail runners care about the finish line. Pace is secondary on trail, what matters is training build, environment conditions and elevation profile. The trail profile reconfigures the entire data hierarchy around terrain.
Triathlon
Triathletes are multi-sport athletes. The triathlon profile restructures everything around sport balance.
You Can Change It
Your training profile isn't permanent. If you started as a general endurance runner and decided to sign up for a marathon, you can switch your profile in Settings. The app reconfigures immediately — new activity types, new dashboard cards, new route builder emphasis. Your historical data stays intact. Only the presentation layer changes.
This is possible because the profile is a configuration key, not a data model. Your activities, your TSS history, your CTL/ATL/TSB trend — none of that is profile-specific. It's all calculated the same way regardless of which profile you've selected. The profile only controls what you see and how the app frames the data for you.
