Train for the GranFondo San Diego with Cadoo
The GranFondo San Diego is a Gran Fondo in San Diego, CA on Apr 19, 2026. Signing up is the easy part — showing up for every training session until race day is where most people fall off. Cadoo fixes that by turning your build-up into a money-motivated game: stake money on hitting each session, hit your goal and get paid, miss it and your stake goes to the athletes who showed up.

Your Climbing Challenge training game
For an event like this, Cadoo runs a Climbing Challenge game — a 16-week plan pitched at difficulty 7/10. It piles on the elevation so the climbs on course feel like home. Every rep, mile, and minute is verified (reps by CadooVision's AI camera check, distance and steps via Apple Health or Google Health Connect), so the money only moves on work you actually did.
Built for training crews like #PedalPower, #RideOn, #GravelGrind.
