How Epeak Beats Spond for Outdoor Sports?

Epeak is the leading community platform for outdoor sports like running, triathlon, and cycling. It stands out by enabling athletes to build detailed training plans and organize race schedules—features that are unique to Epeak.

Epeak Helps Groups Build Tailored Training Plans

Epeak workout details

Epeak is more than just an event scheduler; it’s a training plan builder tailored to the needs of endurance sports communities like running, triathlon, and cycling clubs.

With Epeak, coaches can create detailed workouts that include essential elements such as distance, elevation gain, and workout specifics—all tailored to their sport. It simplifies training session management with features like attendance tracking, skill groups, and workout summaries.

In contrast, Spond’s approach is more generalized, focusing on creating basic sports events, which lacks the depth and sport-specific detail that Epeak offers.

Epeak Elevates Outdoor Training with GPX File Syncing

Epeak enables athletes to sync GPX files, offering detailed maps and elevation data that are essential for outdoor sports like trail running, cycling, and triathlons.

Whether planning a long run or a long ride, this feature enhances training by allowing athletes to follow precise routes tailored to their sport.

Spond, on the other hand, lacks any GPX syncing functionality, making Epeak the go-to platform for endurance athletes who need specific outdoor training tools.

Epeak Is The Only Community Platform with a Race Calendar and Interactive Map

Epeak uniquely integrates a race calendar with an interactive map, allowing athletes to easily search for races by location, whether it's the big goal race of the year or a smaller adventure.

Epeak also offers personalized race recommendations, helping users discover new events tailored to their interests.

Spond lacks these advanced features, making Epeak the top choice for race enthusiasts looking for a platform built around their needs.

Race Results & Statistics: Coming Soon to Epeak

At Epeak, we're developing a comprehensive race results & statistics feature, designed to provide clubs with deeper insights.

This will allow clubs to track athlete race results alongside attendance, all from an intuitive dashboard. While Spond already has a statistics feature, it mainly focuses on event attendance.

Epeak’s upcoming feature will go beyond that, offering a more holistic view of community performance, making it easier for clubs to track both participation and achievements.
