Motivation App

The Motivation App is meant for runners who race longer distances such as marathons or half-marathons and is built by a marathoner for marathoners. By combining the heart rate and core body temperature information, the app calculates your expected effort level and notifies you in real-time once you reach a new level (light/blue, moderate/green, borderline/yellow, hard/orange, or maximum/red). This helps to make you more aware of your perceived effort while racing and guides you to pick an optimal race pace. Every kilometer a detailed lap overview is shown. The data is recorded in the activity file. NB! The CORE sensor (https://corebodytemp.com/) and a heart rate monitor or wrist heart rate are necessary for the app to work and should be paired with the Garmin watch. We advise you to test the app during longer (8+ km) tempo runs to understand how to interpret your data and to use the app for your benefit during races. This app is not meant to be a substitute for professional medical advice. The notifications are meant to be descriptive rather than prescriptive.
