Live multiplayer running on iPhone

Turn Every Run
Into a Live Race.

Running alone is boring and hard to stick to. RunTogether gives runners what most fitness apps do not: live pressure while you are still moving, whether you are outside, on a treadmill, on a StairMaster, or chasing a Ghost session before sunrise.

  • Real people moving in real time
  • Ghost racers and AI pacers keep quiet lobbies useful
  • Outdoor, treadmill, StairMaster, clubs, and ranked play in one app
Free download 7-day free trial iOS 18.5 or later
Why it clicks fast
You are not tracking a run later.
You are chasing someone now.

Built for outdoor runs, treadmills, StairMaster sessions, Ghost Mode reps, and run clubs that actually want everyone to show up.

The live layer

Other runners are visible while you run, so backing off feels different.

The flexibility

Use the same app outdoors with GPS, indoors with wearables, or in Ghost Mode at 6am.

The retention loop

Rank, streaks, clubs, and shareable results turn one run into a reason to come back.

Most running apps measure effort after the run. RunTogether changes the run itself.

The fastest path to the aha moment is simple: when someone can catch you, pass you, or beat you live, the workout feels different. That matters outdoors, on treadmills, and on StairMasters where motivation usually fades first.

Solo runs are easy to cut short

If nothing is happening except your own thoughts, it is easy to ease off, quit early, or skip the session entirely.

Treadmill and StairMaster sessions drag

Indoor cardio is hardest when there is no competition, no pacing tension, and nothing to chase except the clock.

Group accountability is hard to coordinate

Friends and clubs want to train together, but schedules break and ordinary running apps do not create a shared live moment.

RunTogether changes behavior with three levers.

Visibility You can see the race unfolding while you are still in it.
Stakes League points, streaks, and club pride give each session a score.
Convenience One app works across outdoor runs, treadmills, StairMaster sessions, and off-hours Ghost reps.

The first race is easy to start, which is why the value lands quickly.

The product experience is simple on purpose: choose how you are running, join a live race or club session, and let the movement on screen create the pressure that normal run trackers miss.

Choose your mode and distance

Go outside with GPS, use wearable-friendly treadmill mode, pick your StairMaster level, or jump into Ghost Mode. Choose 1 mile, 5K, 10K, half marathon, full marathon, or a custom distance.

Join a lobby or create a club race

Jump into live ranked competition, invite friends into a private race, use run clubs to organize repeatable sessions, or let AI pacers fill the lobby when the room is quiet.

Watch the race change your effort

Your avatar moves as you move. Pace swings, position changes, and the leaderboard give you feedback during the workout, not just after it.

The product is built around tension, progress, and people.

These are the three product loops most likely to move someone from curiosity to download: live competition, visible progression, and better group accountability.

Live competition

Real movement creates real pressure.

The core mechanic is the hook. When your position changes live and other runners stay visible, your pace decisions stop feeling abstract. That is where the app becomes sticky.

  • Live race map with runner positions updating as the workout happens
  • 30-second lobbies and AI pacers keep races active even during off-hours
  • Faster aha moment than traditional tracking-only apps
Visible progress

Ranked leagues give every session a scoreboard.

Bronze IV to Champion is not just decoration. LP, promotion pressure, and visible ladder movement give runners a simple answer to "why this run matters today" and turn repeat usage into a progression loop instead of a logging habit.

  • League Points make outcomes matter immediately
  • Promotion and demotion pressure create a real competitive arc
  • Anti-cheat validation helps results feel credible, not fake

Better accountability

Run clubs turn loose plans into repeatable races.

Clubs matter because motivation is social. When the crew can meet inside one live product instead of texting around it, training feels coordinated and the app earns a reason to stay installed.

  • Create private groups and race with friends remotely
  • Schedule club events and keep weekly club leaderboards alive
  • Helpful for clubs, friend groups, accountability partners, and remote training

Use the app the way people already train.

One of the strongest conversion advantages here is breadth. Users do not need a separate running app for outdoors, a separate motivation app for treadmills, and nothing at all for StairMaster sessions.

Outdoor GPS

Race while you actually run outside.

Use GPS outdoors and see the race in motion instead of waiting for the recap later.

Treadmill

Turn repetitive indoor miles into competition.

Wearable-friendly treadmill mode keeps indoor runners competitive without forcing them into a separate app.

StairMaster

Make climbing feel like a contest, not a countdown.

Dedicated StairMaster support gives climbers a mode that is usually ignored by mainstream running apps.

Ghost Mode

Train solo without losing the chase.

Race your PR, a past run, or an example pacer anytime so early morning and off-hours sessions still feel alive.

The best running products do more than log activity. They build a loop.

RunTogether has the right ingredients for repeat usage: outcomes that feel public enough to matter, progress that is easy to understand, and enough identity around rank and clubs to make the next session feel unfinished.

Streaks create consistency pressure

Weekly streaks reward showing up repeatedly, which makes the app useful even on ordinary training days.

Badges and PRs turn progress into moments

Milestones, personal records, and badges give runners something concrete to unlock and share.

Post-race sharing carries the product outward

Shareable results help users signal progress and can create low-cost organic reach from the workout itself.

Answers people need before they tap through.

Is RunTogether free to download?

Yes. RunTogether is free to download on the App Store and includes a 7-day free trial. After the trial, the current App Store listing shows paid subscription options that can be canceled anytime.

Can I race friends online with RunTogether?

Yes. You can race friends live, create private clubs, join public competition, or organize club events. The core experience is seeing the race unfold while everyone is moving.

Does RunTogether work on a treadmill?

Yes. RunTogether supports treadmill running and positions the mode around wearable support like Apple Watch, Garmin, Coros, or other fitness wearables, so indoor runners can compete live without relying on GPS.

Does RunTogether support StairMaster workouts?

Yes. RunTogether includes a dedicated StairMaster mode with 20 intensity levels so climbers can compete live too.

What is Ghost Mode?

Ghost Mode lets you race your personal best, a past run, or an example pacer anytime. It is ideal for solo training, off-hours sessions, and pace practice when no live race is happening.

How do ranked leagues work?

RunTogether uses an LP-based ladder from Bronze IV to Champion. Race results affect League Points, which creates promotion and demotion pressure and gives each session a clear competitive outcome beyond simple workout logging.
