Why Beatpace
The plan is done. The music never heard about it.
Beatpace builds original running music where the workout structure is inside the audio. Each session becomes one continuous mix: every block holds its own exact BPM, matched to your cadence, and the tempo shifts land on the block boundary. Not a playlist, not your streaming library rearranged. Music written to hold a tempo, because your legs follow the beat whether you ask them to or not.
Locked, not -ish.
Every block holds its exact BPM for its exact length. Your nervous system locks footstrike to a beat without asking you, so a track that drifts a few BPM by the chorus moves your cadence with it. Near the beat is worse than off it.
A steady beat that never drops out.
Built for entrainment, not for the dance floor: no build-and-drop arcs, no half-tempo bridges, no breakdown in the middle of a threshold block. When fatigue starts to degrade your form late in a session, the beat is still there to hold your turnover.
The music is the cue.
When the block changes, the beat changes: you hear the next rep start without looking at your wrist. Add transition beeps or a voice that counts you in, or nothing at all. Your choice, per run, and it never changes the mix underneath.
For riders and runners
Built on the trainer. Works on the road.
TrainerDay is a cycling-first structured training platform built around the indoor trainer, and it carries running workouts too, written in % of race pace rather than watts.
Beatpace reads that calendar for both. Indoor cyclists get a mix that rides the trainer session with them, cadence in RPM. Runners get the same session structure as a run, cadence in SPM, on the watch. This page is for both of you.
What Beatpace reads
What comes across.
Whatever sits on your TrainerDay calendar, a library workout you dropped in or a day from a plan. TrainerDay's workoutBlocks arrive as segments in seconds, and each second becomes block length, exactly. Beatpace looks ten days ahead and keeps your next three planned sessions built, so there is a mix waiting the evening before; the calendar is read every evening around 9 pm your local time, on every Garmin sync, and when you press Sync plan now in Settings. Change a workout after the mix is built and it is marked outdated and rebuilt in place; the old mix stays playable until the new one is ready.
From a step to a block.
On rides
% of FTP sets the band: under 76 is Recovery, up to 105 is Work, above that is Push. Cadence follows your base RPM from Settings, nudged per effort, unless the segment names a cadence of its own.
On runs
TrainerDay's intensity is % of race pace, not power, even where the field is labelled like power. Beatpace converts it to % of threshold pace and bands it. Cadence follows your base SPM.
rest Recovery
A TrainerDay rest segment is a low-intensity valley, not a stop. It becomes a Recovery block with easy music at an easy cadence, never silence.
reps: 4
A block with reps on it becomes one Beatpace repetition block, so 4 × 4 min reads as 4 × 4 min.
On a Garmin, those three queued sessions are part of your watch's sync set without saving anything. The watch downloads them when it is charging and on Wi-Fi, or sooner if you open Beatpace on the watch and press Sync. A trainer session plays from the phone or laptop browser next to the bike.
Honest limits
What does not translate.
Distance segments get spread, not measured.
A segment written in distance has no seconds on it. Beatpace spreads it over the workout's stated minutes, weighted by intensity, so the mix still ends when the workout does.
ERG, free ride and slope are all just a target.
Beatpace does not know or care how your trainer holds the effort. Those segment types, and open-ended ones, take their band from the intensity target alone.
Swims never build.
A swim shows on your Beatpace calendar as a planned day with no mix and takes no queue slot. Strength and yoga are calendar-only too.
The TrainerDay mapping is new, and TrainerDay-specific edge cases are still being verified against live accounts. If a workout of yours comes across wrong, send the workout name to support@beatpace.io.

FAQ
What is Beatpace?
Beatpace builds original running music with the workout structure inside the audio: each planned session becomes one continuous mix where every block holds its own exact BPM, matched to your cadence. It plays in any browser or natively on a music-capable Garmin, with no phone.
Do I need a trainer?
No. TrainerDay runs come across the same way rides do, and a run plays from your Garmin or from a phone browser. A trainer session plays from the phone or laptop next to the bike.
Does Beatpace write anything back to TrainerDay?
No. Beatpace reads your calendar, your name and your FTP, and that is all. Nothing is created, changed or marked complete in TrainerDay.
Do I need to carry my phone?
Not on a supported Garmin: the mix runs natively on the watch with Bluetooth headphones. Without a watch, every mix plays in any modern phone browser with the screen locked.
Does this change my training plan?
No. Beatpace only reads your planned sessions. Nothing is written back, and your platform stays the source of truth.
What if I have no plan today?
Forever Radio: set one tempo, pick a Sound, press play, and the music keeps coming as long as you do. Free accounts get 20 minutes a day, Pro is unlimited.
Which platforms are supported?
intervals.icu, AI Endurance, TrainerDay, Tredict. Want yours next? Tell us.
What happens if I disconnect?
Beatpace deletes the stored access tokens and your athlete id for that platform, stops reading the plan, and clears the sessions it queued from it. Mixes you pinned or saved yourself stay. You can also revoke Beatpace from inside the platform.
From the founder
I'm a long-distance runner. I built Beatpace because I couldn't find music that matched my workouts, not just my mood. Cycling instructors picked it up first, since they live and die by BPM. Now it's looping back to the audience I built it for.
