Ratings and reviews

Handy dandy app, especially if you're Southern & have never visited Detroit, but you want to cheer on a friend who's running the race. Course maps are available, but my favorite feature is the ability to search for runners by name, bib #, etc., then track their location on the course, split times, and finish line ETA. One is asked on the start screen whether one is running or not; since I wasn't, I have no idea what's behind door number two.

As a Fixer for a runner who was asked that I get them to and from the event. I found the app helpful with great splits and ability to budget time from start to meeting my runner at the finish. Suggested improvement, better locators for runner reunite areas.

It's kind of nice. A little clunky and rough around the edges but it works well enough.
