RunTogether is England Athletics' replacement for the Run England system that the Stride Out Course was promoted under. It was piloted in November 2016 and officially launched on 1st January 2017 so is quite new and England Athletics are keen to hear feedback from users.

We can use the RunTogether system for our normal run groups as well as the Stride Out Course. It is currently set it up for new runners coming to the club for the first time, and we have already had four people sign up that way.

We are using it for the January Stride Out Course where it will hopefully make the adminstration of the course easier and quicker.

RunTogether app

The RunTogether app allows Run Leaders to check in runners for runs and access their emergency contact information (even without a data signal - as long as the data has been refreshed recently) if necessary. It is available for Android devices and iPhones. You can get your flavour here.
