5k and fun runs

Running a 5k or a fun run? Make it a month, not a morning.

A city turkey trot, a school fun run, a company 5k or a charity walk. Ironstride adds the weeks before race day and a big screen on the day itself.

  1. Up to four weeks beforeEveryone who signs up moves along a training road, like your town to the next one. Walkers, runners and riders all count, as teams, families or classrooms.
  2. Race dayThe live board goes on the screen at the finish. People who can’t be there record their 5k in the app from anywhere, and it counts.
  3. AfterA patch for everyone who takes part and a recap with the totals, ready for next year.
