The open-source alternative to TrainingPeaks. Self-hostable endurance training platform. Your data stays yours.

The ethical alternative to TrainingPeaks and Strava.
OpenAthlete is open source under the AGPLv3, built so you can own your training data: self-host, export, and avoid vendor lock-in. Core hosting and processing are oriented toward the European Union with GDPR-minded defaults.
Endurance athletes feed years of intimate training data into proprietary U.S. platforms such as TrainingPeaks, Strava, and Garmin Connect, with little practical say in how that data is processed, monetized, or retained.Read the full README ↗Endurance athletes feed years of intimate training data into proprietary U.S. platforms such as TrainingPeaks, Strava, and Garmin Connect, with little practical say in how that data is processed, monetized, or retained.
OpenAthlete is a different proposition: comparable tracking and analysis in an open-source stack, hosted in the EU when you use managed infrastructure, self-hostable when you prefer your own hardware, and with training-load logic you can read and adapt in the repository. It is maintained by an ultra-trail runner based in Grenoble.

This will start:
http://localhost:5173http://localhost:3000Run type checking before committing:
pnpm tsc:check
Format and lint your code:
pnpm format:write
pnpm lint:fix
Pull the current version:
git pull
Check if dependencies got added/updated/removed
pnpm install
Apply database migrations by running one of the following commands:
In a development environment, run:
