Read full descriptionHide full description
The concept of "Run the Globe" originates from a desire to infuse excitement and playfulness into the monitoring of sports activities. Run the globe invites you to embark on a personal journey, encouraging you to discover new places while engaging in competitions with friends or family to claim territories worldwide. Run the Globe is all about conquering territory. You claim territory by tracking your activities in Strava. When you have tracked your activity in Strava it is automatically converted to territory in your battles and personal world in Run the Globe. When playing with others, you can take over their territory by tracking an activity in the same area. Remember, they can do the same to you, so be on edge.

Verdict
