Outrun your coworkers. Then throw them under the bus.
Your real workouts move you along a real route on the map. Pass a checkpoint and you open an envelope: office items you use on each other. Joining is free.
Your workouts are the miles.
-
Work out like you already do.
Runs, rides, walks, swims, lifting: Apple Health brings them in, or track a run in the app. Each one turns into race miles.
-
Race a real route.
Your avatar moves along the course your organiser drew on the map. Everyone can see who's ahead, and by how much.
-
Open an envelope.
Every checkpoint hands you an interoffice envelope with one item inside. The further back you are, the better the envelopes get.
-
Use it on someone.
Throw a coworker under the bus, book them a pointless meeting, or take the credit for their miles. Or go out of office and let it all bounce off.
Ten ways to ruin someone's week.
Every item is an office idiom, and every one does what it sounds like.

Let's Circle Back
Nothing happens. As usual.
Does nothing. Clears your desk.
You set the course. They do the rest.
Setting up a race takes about as long as booking a meeting room, and it's more fun.
Draw the course.
Pick a start and a finish; the route follows real roads. Checkpoints are spaced for your group's pace, about one every week and a half.
Decide what counts.
Choose the activities and what each is worth, which sources count (watch and GPS, other apps through Apple Health, typed-in), and a minimum, so the walk to the coffee machine doesn't.
Solo or teams.
Race as individuals, or split the office into teams. An equalizer keeps a team of four honest against a team of six.
Invite with one code.
Six characters or a link. Rotate it or switch it off any time.

You pay when you press Start, so you only pay once people have joined. No ads. Nobody can buy items or miles.
Does it cost anything to join?
No. Joining a race is free, forever. Only an organiser running a bigger race pays, once.
What counts as a workout?
Anything Apple Health records as a workout (runs, walks, rides, swims, strength and more) plus runs, walks and rides you track in the app. Each race's organiser picks which activities count and how many race miles each is worth.
Do I need an Apple Watch?
No. Your iPhone can track a run, walk or ride in the app. A watch, or another fitness app that saves to Apple Health, works too.
Can someone just type in a marathon?
Only if the organiser lets them. Typed-in workouts are off unless the organiser turns them on, and they can ask for a photo with each one.
What happens when I get thrown under the bus?
You lose 5 race miles. Your actual run still happened. Keep a Pointless Meeting on your desk, or go Out of Office, and the next one bounces.
Can we race as teams?
Yes. Put people on teams and the team moves as one. When a team reaches a checkpoint, everyone on it opens an envelope.
Who sees my workouts?
Only the people in races you add them to. We read workout summaries from Apple Health (type, time, duration, distance), never heart rate or anything else. Our Privacy Policy has the details.
Is it on Android?
Not yet. iPhone first.
When can I get it?
It's in testing now, and coming soon to the App Store.
Your office is already competitive.
Now it counts.
Coming soon to iPhone
