Dourabo is your personal companion for every running event — built so you never miss a registration window or a race day again. If you run multiple marathons and road races a year, you know the problem: you spot an event, mean to sign up, and the registration window quietly closes — or race day sneaks up with no warning. Dourabo fixes that with smart reminders, a clean event directory, and a personal archive of everything you've run. DISCOVER EVENTS Browse and search a directory of marathons and road races. Every event shows what you need at a glance: date, distances (5K, 10K, Half, Full), venue and location, organizer, the registration window, and a direct link to register. Filter by location, distance, and status to find your next race fast. TRACK WHAT MATTERS TO YOU Set a personal status on any event: • Planning to Register — for events you intend to join. Get reminded before registration opens, so you never miss the sign-up window. • Registered — for events you've signed up for. Get reminded before race day so you arrive ready. • Completed — for races you've finished, turning the event into a permanent record. SMART REMINDERS Choose 7-days-before and 1-day-before reminders and your preferred time of day. Dourabo notifies you at the right moment — before registration opens for events you're planning, and before race day for events you're registered for. Reminders are delivered reliably, even when the app is closed. YOUR RUNNING ARCHIVE Mark a race Completed and upload your finisher certificate and event photos. Build a private, visual history of every finish line you've crossed — view your certificates and photos any time, and save them back to your device. SIMPLE, SECURE SIGN-IN Sign in with Apple, Google, or email. Manage your profile, and delete your account and all associated data at any time, right from the app. MADE FOR RUNNERS • Light and dark themes • Fast search and filtering • Clean, distraction-free design Download Dourabo and keep your whole race calendar — discovery, deadlines, race day, and your finisher archive — in one place.
