One app for all of your events. Track participants on an events course map, view real-time leaderboards, receive participant progress alerts and important updates from events. • View & share results and rankings. • Find event landmarks with the course map. • Track participants via GPS. • Accept or decline tracking notifications. • Receive push notifications for followed participants. • Take and share event photos with all other spectators and participants using the app. • Easily follow and stay up-to-date with Marathons, 5Ks, 10Ks and Triathlons near you. In the Watch app, Apple’s HealthKit is used to collect heart rate and exercise data, and at the end of a run, the workout is saved to Healthkit. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
