Pick a start, then choose a distance or running duration. CourseCrafter builds three circular or out-and-back options you can compare and export as a watch-ready GPX.
2 Set your outing
Route shape
Circular routes automatically remove roads that would require turning around and retracing your steps.
Running surface
Road prioritises streets and firm paths. Map surface data can be incomplete, so inspect every route before downloading.
Desired running time
CourseCrafter converts your time and pace into a route distance automatically.
