Running alone is fine. Running to beat your friends is way more addictive.
Pace Rivals turns your runs into a weekly competition with the people you care about. No global rankings where your position means nothing: small groups where being first each week makes a difference.
COMPETE IN PRIVATE GROUPS
Create a group with your friends and see who has run the most each week. The rankings reset every Monday, so you always have a new chance to climb to the top.
STILL DON'T HAVE ANYONE TO RUN WITH?
You don't need your friends to install it to get started. Search for open groups with available spots, sorted by your skill level, and join instantly without needing a code. There are also official leagues for each level, from Walk to Titan, with member limits so the rankings are still something you can win.
1-ON-1 DUELS
Challenge a rival to a distance duel. One week, two runners, one winner. Put something on the line and prove it on the asphalt.
ROUTE CHALLENGES
Collect kilometers together to complete legendary routes: the Camino de Santiago, Madrid-Paris, and many more. A common goal unites the group race after race.
KEEP YOUR STREAK GOING
String together days of running and grow your streak. Take more than a day off and reset to zero. How far can you go?
ACHIEVEMENTS AND MEDALS
Unlock milestones as you progress and show them off on your profile. Every kilometer counts.
YOUR GROUP, YOUR RULES
Groups are private by default: only those with your code can join. If you're the owner, you decide whether to open it to new people, you can remove anyone who doesn't fit in, and change the invitation code whenever you want.
YOUR WORKOUTS, AUTOMATICALLY
Pace Rivals syncs with Health Connect. Your runs from Garmin, Polar, Samsung Health, Wear OS, or any compatible app automatically enter the competition. Run as usual and let Pace Rivals do the rest. We only read your workouts: we never write or share your data, and you can revoke access at any time.
