The premise

Plans tell you what. Nothing makes you do it.

Every training plan has two halves. The first is the prescription. That part is solved. The second is doing it: showing up, and going easy when it says easy and hard when it says hard. That part is where most people fall off.

Sykla is the second half.

Half one · the plan

What to do

Hill repeats × 5. Tempo 20 minutes. Easy 45. Your plan, your coach, or ours.

Half two · the game

Doing it right

A real climb for the repeats. A star that holds your tempo pace. A café at the end of the easy ride. You play the game and the session happens.

The one rule
A game never rewards the wrong effort.

If a game makes your easy day hard, the game is broken. So easy days have nothing to race, and tempo has a ceiling.

The games

Every session has a game.

Same workout, different place every time. Here is what each session turns into, and what it trains.

Easy day

Go somewhere

12 KM · ICE CREAM AT THE TURNA quiet loop to a café, a park, a trail you haven't done. No clock. No crowns.Aerobic base. Nothing to race, so you don't.
Long day

Finish a trail system

A tour, a greenway end to end, a stamp at the far end.Endurance. The distance goes somewhere.
Tempo

Chase the runaway star

The star holds your tempo pace. Too slow and it gets away. Faster earns nothing.Holding a steady effort. The star paces you.
VO2 intervals

Dashes

Each dash is a rep on a flat loop with no lights. Hit it, recover to the next marker.Short hard efforts. Honest recoveries.
Hill repeats

A real climb, five times

Every rep against the climb's Gold par and your last session.Climbing strength. Even reps, no fade.
Sprints

Take the next three crowns

Short sprint segments chained into a loop. Real boards, real rivals.Top-end speed. With something to take.
Your workday, 15 minutes

Star Dash

800 M LOOP · 5 STARS + 3 FAR STARS · BACK AT YOUR DESK AT 15:00Get up and get moving during your workday. Stars land on the streets outside your door. Collect them and be back at your desk as close to 15:00 as you can. Far stars are worth more. Rushing earns nothing.Breaking up the sitting. A reason to stand up at 2:15, and a board with the people in your building.
What you get

Fitter, without the grind.

You show up

A star to chase, a road to found, a week to win. A reason to go out today.

The right effort

The game holds the pace for you. Fewer junk miles, fewer blown easy days.

Never the same loop

The same session lands on a new climb, loop or trail. Week six feels new.

Progress you can see

A par you beat, a faster rep, a stamp turning Silver. Proof, not just mileage.

People near you

Crowns and The Block bring rivals and friends, on your schedule.

Stats

What you're close to.

The first thing Stats shows is what you could win today: two seconds off a par, one more visit for a Silver stamp, one more day on a streak.
