The itch
My college teammates at ASU and I are runners at heart. For years we dreamed of a world where you could make new friends through running: visit a new town and immediately have someone to run and explore with. So we built it.
What it does
- A map of planned runs: see when and where your friends are running nearby, with the distance and pace.
- Join with one tap and you're instantly in a chat with everyone going.
- Nothing fits your schedule? Post your own run and let others join you.
- Recommended routes that runners in your area love to meet at, plus your past runs to re-create.
- Meet new runners nearby based on pace and training, and add them as friends.
How it works
One React Native codebase built with Expo, backed by Firebase. The app talks to Firebase directly for sign-in and data, and Cloud Functions react to changes, like sending a push when a friend posts a run or someone joins yours.
