Every update to your race, explained in plain English. Currently on Beta v1.0.0.
🌴 Time Off & PTO Bank (brand new)
Tag any day — past or future — as a day off, sick day, or PTO day from the new Time Off calendar. Sick and PTO days give you a choice: just track it (unpaid, zero guilt), or cover it from your PTO bank so the day still counts toward your relay. Mark a whole week as PTO and it shows teal on your scoreboard — never red, and your streak stays safe. You can even schedule PTO weeks ahead of time.
🧾 Close out each relay honestly
After every payout, the Caddy asks what you ACTUALLY set aside for debt, savings, and PTO — because the Income Map gives the ideal, but real life gets the final say. What you log grows your PTO bank, and if your sheet is connected, both your Planned and Actual numbers land in that relay's RELAY ALLOCATIONS block automatically.
🏆 Year-End Scorecard & Race Reel
Finish all 52 relays and you can generate a clean, professional Year-End Scorecard with your name on it — plus a shareable Race Highlights reel showing what you earned, what you cleared, your best week, and the rest you built into the year (PTO days, sick days, and every dollar of self-paid time off).

🏁 The Caddy — your daily co-pilot
Log wins in seconds (back-date up to 30 days if you forget), watch your weekly relay progress, and let every entry sync straight into the right day cell of your Google Sheet. Streaks pause when life happens — they never reset to zero.
🔒 Goal Guardian & Pit Stops
Your targets are season-locked between quarterly Pit Stop windows (synced to US tax dates), so there's no moving the goalposts at mile 20. When a Pit Stop opens, review the quarter and set your adjustments — taxes included.
📊 Yearly Scoreboard & Monthly Wrap-Up
All 52 relays on one screen — cleared, in progress, PTO weeks in teal — plus tax checkpoints, your surplus bank, racer badges, and a monthly recap you can actually feel good about.
🧰 Resource Library & Coach
Pit Crew tools for debt payoff timing, savings goals, and PTO buffer planning — each able to sync your numbers to the sheet — plus an in-app coach for the days the math feels heavy.
