## What is Race Your Ghost?

Race Your Ghost turns every run into a head-to-head showdown — against the one runner who always pushes you hardest: you.

Record a run and it becomes your "ghost." Next time you head out the same route, your ghost runs right alongside you in real time. Pull ahead and you'll feel it; fall behind and you'll know exactly how many seconds you need to make up. It's the simplest way to actually get faster, run after run.

WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT
• Race your ghost — your past run replays live as you go, showing whether you're ahead or behind, second by second.
• Free Run mode — just want to log miles? Track distance, pace, and route with no ghost at all.
• Apple Watch app — monitor and finish runs from your wrist, with your ahead/behind status synced instantly to your phone.
• Apple Health — every workout is saved natively to the Health app, so your rings and history stay complete.
• Beautiful run summaries — see your route, splits, and stats, add a photo, and share the moment.
• Challenge a friend — send any run as a challenge and see if they can beat your ghost.
• Voice & haptic cues — keep your eyes on the road; the app tells you where you stand.

Whether you're chasing a 5K PR or just trying to be a little faster than last week, Race Your Ghost makes progress something you can see and feel on every run.

Lace up. Beat yesterday.

I know the developer behind this fun app and I am happy to see her realize this dream. I really appreciate the nostalgic design. I really like that all my runs are saved locally to minimize tracking.

### 1.0.2 — 2026-09-08

Race a run you already have.

• Import from Apple Health — turn any past run in Health into a ghost and race it today, with no need to record the route first.
• Import a GPX file from Strava, Garmin or anywhere else.
• Imported runs are now measured exactly the way live runs are measured, so an imported ghost and a recorded one agree on how far a route is.
• Race margins over a minute now read as minutes and seconds rather than a long count of seconds.
• Fixed the missing progress indicator when building a share image from your photo library.

### 1.0.1 — 2026-09-04
