Bring your brand to our community
Our volunteer based community creates accessible, social workouts in urban centres around the world. We aim to bridge the gap between enjoying your workout and hanging out with your friends. Seasoned runner or just starting out? It doesn’t matter to us. We run with speakers and create a party that moves through the streets every week and everyone is invited.
Real-Time Pace and Progress, Start to Finish
Every runner in our races is fitted with an RFID timing chip, giving you accurate splits and real-time progress from the start line all the way to the finish. It’s how we keep results fair, transparent, and available the moment you cross the line — no manual timing, no guesswork.
Want to know more about how our timing devices work? Reach out to our team and we’ll walk you through it.
