Qualification
See how your performance would have ranked at recent races — and where you'd have earned a World Championship slot. Your time is age-graded to your age group, then ranked against each race's real field.
- Your finishing time is age-graded to your age group, then ranked against recent editions of each race.
- Rows in green mean your qualifier rank fits inside that race's slot allocation — you'd have earned a slot.
- Slot allocation: leave blank to use each race's own, or set a number to test a scenario.
- Filter races by region.
Recent-race qualification
Your performance
Ranked at recent races
Ranks are computed against each race's real field (finish times by age group), exactly like ranking you inside past results — using IRONMAN's official age-grading factors (Kona & 70.3 Standard, 2026). Add real races in the Admin module. Women's 80-84 & 85-89 factors are estimated.
Race Directory
Browse and filter races. Pick any combination of filters to see the matching races; the list updates as you choose.

Admin
Manage the shared race database and other admin tasks. Only your account can make changes — everyone else just sees the results.
Admin access
News — publish & manage
Write a news post for the News tab (the app's home page). Photo is optional — JPEG or PNG, it gets resized automatically.
Qualification — import race results (CSV)
Creates a Qualification race: real finish times by division, used only in the Qualification tab. Choose a results CSV (Ironman / CoachCox format — columns like Division, Overall Time, Qualified). Distance and slots are detected automatically; set a clean name and year below before choosing the file.
Directory — bulk import (CSV)
Creates Directory races: course profiles used only in the Race Directory tab (separate from Qualification). Import many at once from a CSV file (like data/directory.csv); races that already exist (same id) are updated. Expected columns: id, name, year, distance, region, country, month, courseType, series, swim, bike, run, totalDist, bikeElev, runElev, totalGain, elevGain, difficulty, waterTemp, website.
Directory — race details
Add or edit a single Directory race — these fields power the Race Directory tab only. Qualification races are managed separately with the results CSV import at the top.
Qualification races in the database
Races with imported results — they appear only in the Qualification tab.
Directory races in the database
Races with a course profile — they appear only in the Race Directory tab.

Who we are
Pacer Quest (pacerquest.com) is a triathlon toolkit operated from Portugal. For anything related to your personal data, contact us at [email protected].
What data we collect
- Account data — your email address and a password (stored securely as a cryptographic hash; we never see or store your password in plain text).
- Profile data (optional) — first and last name, team, and a profile photo, if you choose to add them.
- Technical data — basic server and security logs (such as IP address and timestamps) generated when you use the site, kept by our infrastructure providers for security and operations.
We do not collect payment information, precise location, or any data from third-party social networks.
What we use it for
- To create and operate your account (sign-in, email confirmation, password recovery) — necessary to provide the service you request.
- To display your profile information to you.
- To keep the service secure and functioning — our legitimate interest.
We do not sell your data, we do not use it for advertising, and we only send transactional emails (account confirmation and password recovery) — no marketing emails.
Cookies and local storage
Pacer Quest uses no advertising or tracking cookies. We use your browser's local storage only for strictly necessary purposes: keeping you signed in and remembering your theme preference. Because of this, no cookie consent banner is required.
Who processes your data
We rely on trusted providers to run the service, acting as data processors:
- Supabase — database and authentication (accounts, profiles).
- Resend — delivery of transactional emails, processed in the EU region.
- Cloudflare — website hosting, DNS and content delivery.
Where any provider processes data outside the EU/EEA, transfers are covered by appropriate safeguards such as the EU Standard Contractual Clauses.
How long we keep it
Your account and profile data are kept for as long as your account exists. If you ask us to delete your account, we remove your account and profile data without undue delay.
Your rights
Under the GDPR you can: access the data we hold about you; correct it (your profile is editable in the app); ask for deletion of your account; receive a copy of your data; and object to or restrict certain processing. To exercise any of these, email [email protected]. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your supervisory authority — in Portugal, the CNPD (cnpd.pt).
Children
Pacer Quest is not directed at children under 16. If you believe a child has created an account, contact us and we will remove it.
Changes
If this policy changes, we will update this page and its date. Significant changes will be announced on the News page.

What Pacer Quest is
Pacer Quest (pacerquest.com) provides planning and information tools for triathletes: a race pace simulator, a qualification estimator, a race directory and community news. By using the site you agree to these terms.
Your account
Creating an account is optional for browsing. If you register, keep your credentials secure — you are responsible for activity on your account. Provide a valid email address, and don't impersonate others in your profile. We may suspend or remove accounts that abuse the service.
Estimates, not guarantees
The simulator and the qualification estimator produce estimates based on models and historical data. Race conditions, fields and slot allocations vary — a projected time or a "would have qualified" result is not a guarantee of any real-world outcome. Nothing on Pacer Quest is professional coaching or medical advice; consult qualified professionals for training and health decisions.
Race information
Race details in the directory (distances, elevation, dates, conditions) are compiled from public sources and may be incomplete, outdated or contain errors. Always confirm details on the race's official website before making plans or purchases. Race names and logos belong to their respective organisers and are shown for identification only; Pacer Quest is not affiliated with or endorsed by IRONMAN, Challenge Family, T100 or any race organiser.
Your content
Profile information you add (name, team, photo) must be yours to share and must not be unlawful or offensive. You keep ownership of it; you grant us permission to store and display it as part of operating the service.
Our content
The Pacer Quest name, logo and the design of this site belong to Pacer Quest. You may not copy or reuse them without permission.
Liability
The service is provided "as is", free of charge. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Pacer Quest is not liable for losses arising from use of the site, from reliance on estimates or race information, or from temporary unavailability of the service.
Governing law
These terms are governed by Portuguese law. These terms may change; continued use after an update means you accept the new version. Questions: [email protected].
