Calendar treats an upcoming event as more than a title. Save its type, priority, route and practical details, then keep its estimated load and supported event-day forecast visible in the week.

## Race, club or group context

Classify the event, name its organizer when relevant, and keep race priority separate from club and group training.

## Route and logistics

Attach a GPX route, preserve distance and elevation, and record location, start time, preparation and logistics notes before event day.

## Estimated training load

Expected duration, heart rate and power can produce TRIMP and PSS estimates through the same calculation path used elsewhere in the training record.

## Automatic event-day weather

When an upcoming event has a GPX start and falls within the supported forecast window, EffortSignal fetches and stores the Open-Meteo date, conditions, minimum and maximum temperature, rain probability, wind and retrieval time. Stale forecasts are refreshed without replacing manual event details.

## Race planning details

The event editor keeps priority, sport, location, preparation and estimated load together before the event becomes a completed activity.

## Event context inside the week

Club and race cards remain attached to the surrounding workouts instead of becoming a detached event list.
