Runima turns the raw data your smartwatch already collects into the same
metrics professional coaches use — trend analysis, training load, readiness,
and recovery — explained in plain language.

This documentation covers how to connect your data, what each metric means,
and the methodology behind every number on your dashboard.

## Who this is for

- **Runners** training for a marathon, trail, or triathlon who want to base
decisions on facts instead of guesswork.
- **Coaches** who want a transparent, statistics-first view of an athlete's
training.
