What This Skill Does

The AI Running Coach skill transforms your chat interface into a high-performance running partner. By integrating seamlessly with Strava, it tracks your real-time physiological progress and historical data to provide adaptive training plans that adjust based on your actual performance. Whether you are training for your first 5K or chasing a personal best in a marathon, this skill acts as both a data analyst and a motivational coach. It manages your weekly schedule, monitors your recovery, and helps you optimize your training load based on your documented history.

Installation

To add this capability to your agent, execute the following command in your terminal:

clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/aplomb2/ai-running-coach

Ensure you have the arc CLI installed. Upon first run, the system will check for a configuration token. If missing, follow the guided onboarding prompt to connect your Strava account via our secure portal. Once configured, you can verify your connection using arc config test.

Use Cases

• Marathon Preparation: Generate tailored long-term plans that account for your current fitness levels.
• Performance Analysis: Query your personal records, pace improvements, and monthly mileage volume.
• Dynamic Adjustment: If you experience an injury or miss a session, the AI coach automatically re-calibrates your upcoming workouts.
• Daily Guidance: Receive proactive updates on what to run today and a preview of your training goals for the week.

Example Prompts

1. "I'm planning to run a marathon in 12 weeks, can you help me build a training plan based on my recent Strava data?"
2. "How does my average weekly mileage this month compare to last month, and what is my fastest 5K record?"
3. "I'm feeling a bit burned out from yesterday's tempo run; should I stick to the plan today or take a recovery day?"

Tips & Limitations

• Proactive Syncing: The coach works best when you keep your Strava data updated. Ensure your activities are syncing to Strava consistently.
• Conversational Flow: Don't overwhelm the agent with all your goals at once. Follow the suggested onboarding steps for the most accurate plan generation.
• Safety: While this agent provides high-quality athletic guidance, it is not a substitute for professional medical advice. Always listen to your body and consult a doctor if you experience persistent pain or discomfort.
