A life diary for runners

Every race.
Every town.
Your story.

Pin every race you run on a map. Keep your times, photos and medals, grow your runner card from Novice to Elite, and flip back through the years of running that got you here.

Made for race day, not training logs No ads Free to start
What you get

Your running life, on one map.

Training apps count your kilometres. My Running Journal keeps the stories: where you raced, who you ran with, how it felt at the finish.

🗺

Your journey map

Every race becomes a pin. Finished races are solid, planned ones dashed, and routes join them up in the order you ran them.

🏆

Times, medals, positions

Finish time, pace, overall and age-group position, medal and notes for every race, in kilometres or miles.

📷

Photos & Journey album

Add pictures from the day, then flip through your races like a real photo album, page by page.

🌟

Year in review

Swipe through each year: races, distance, new towns, fastest pace and your biggest moments.

🎯

Goals that reset every year

Set a races or distance goal for the year, watch the bar fill, and look back at how every year went.

📅

On this day

See what you were racing on today's date in earlier years. Memories you did not know you needed.

👫

Friends & club mates

Add friends with a code, compare cards on the leaderboard, and, only if you choose, be found by people from your club.

💡

Race bucket list

Park the races you dream of running, then turn one into a plan when you sign up.

Runner card

From Novice to Elite.
It takes years.

Your runner card has a rating from 0 to 1000. It grows with every finished race, every new town, every country, every medal, and every time you beat your own earlier times. Slower runners climb just as fast as quicker ones, because improving counts.

For running clubs

Find your people.

Pick your club from a shared list, so everyone from the same club ends up in the same place, even when someone mistypes the name.

  • Opt in only. Nobody is listed unless they choose to be.
  • Names only. Club mates see your name, not your races or photos.
  • Friends see more. Photos and race details stay with friends you accept.
  • Both sides agree. You only see club mates who have opted in too.

Questions

Good to know

Is this a training app?

No. There are great apps for logging every run. My Running Journal is for the races: the ones with a start line, a finish line and a story.

Who can see my races and photos?

Only you, plus friends you accept. Club mates, if you opt in, see only your name.

What happens if I stop subscribing?

You keep every race. If you have more than 5, they become read-only until you subscribe again or delete down to 5.

Kilometres or miles?

Your choice, any time in Settings. Races are stored in kilometres, so you can switch back and forth without losing anything.

Can I delete my account and data?

Yes, inside the app or by request. See how to delete your account.

Is it on iPhone?

Android first. An iPhone version is planned once the Android app is out.

Your next finish line
deserves a pin.

My Running Journal is coming to Google Play. Be one of the first runners to put your races on the map.
