MAKE YOUR MILES WITH RUNLOOP Plan your next route, track a run, and build your running routine. BUILD YOUR ROUTE Choose your distance, a loop or out-and-back, and a starting point at your location or nearby. Choose Balanced, Quiet Roads, Trail & Adventure, or Fast & Smooth, then compare mapped route options, distance, elevation, and disclosed compromises. START RUNNING Start a Quick Run without planning a route. Track time, distance and pace, pause or resume your session, and review completed runs in Activity. Location recording can continue during an active run with the screen locked when permission is enabled. MAKE IT YOURS Choose a workout, set your running preferences, save routes, manage voice guidance, and optionally connect Apple Health. FIND YOUR COMMUNITY Sign in to discover shared routes, follow runners, and participate in RunLoop Community features. Account and Community participation are optional for core route planning and run tracking. A FRESH RUNNING EXPERIENCE A bold new Home screen, clearer controls, readable run metrics, and route-generation progress keep the focus on your run. Routes depend on mapped roads and paths, provider availability, GPS accuracy, internet connectivity, and local conditions. Generated distances may differ from your target; review route details and compromises before starting. Always check traffic, access restrictions, closures, terrain, and weather. RunLoop does not guarantee that a route is safe, accessible, or suitable for you.
