Runarchy is the app of a running club that has been running in Istanbul since 2017. Explore the city's finest routes on your own, or run with the club, music on, pace forgotten, laughing all the way. Club Runs Every Tuesday at 19:45. But where exactly? The announcement lands in your feed, you say you are coming, you pick your pace group. Meeting point on the map, weather for the hour and the place you will be running. You hear about it the moment a new run is published. After the Run The run ends and everyone gathers on that run's page: how many showed up, how many kilometres in total, what the average pace was. Seeing the line "37 people ran 284 km in total" tells you that getting up that morning was worth it. The badges you earned that day and the photos taken pile up there too. Live Run Hit start, pocket your phone. Distance, duration, pace, elevation gain, steps and cadence keep running in the background, and recording continues with the screen locked. A card drops at every kilometre with your average pace and distance, and your splits are waiting on the run's detail page. Together on the Map Names appearing one by one while you warm up, and where the friend ahead of you is during the run. Opt in and the club sees you, and you see them. Off by default; turning it off again is one tap in Settings. Your location is shared only while the live run screen is in front of you, never while the app is closed. No location history is kept; the moment you leave the screen it is deleted. Run Chat Tired of the mess in group chats? "I'll be five minutes late", "everyone okay?", "waiting by the lights", "running longer today, don't worry about me"... Right over the map, without interrupting your run. Istanbul Routes The finest routes in Istanbul, collected by the club over the years. Distance, elevation gain, surface, difficulty. It is all there. Don't know the route? Preview the course before you run it and see whether it heads for the Golden Horn bridge or turns towards Besiktas. Race Calendar Every race in Türkiye in one place. Date, city, distance, registration link. Picking your next target is that simple. Challenges and Leaderboard Join the club's challenges and see where you stand on the weekly and monthly board. Not into competition? No problem, nobody is pushing. Badges and Stats Your total distance, run count, attendance streak. Some badges unlock with the kilometres you put in, others by being there every Tuesday at 19:45. From your fastest 5K to your weekly streak, they all live on your profile. Shoe Tracking Add your shoes and the kilometres add themselves up. The app tells you when a pair is due for retirement. BE OWL! Edit your run photo with the club's templates and share it straight away. The best five minutes after a run. Partner Venues Where is the post-run coffee? The venues the club has arranged discounts with are all here. Some runs even meet at one: drop by, leave your bag, run, pick up your coffee on the way back. Analysis Your consistency map for the last 12 weeks, your distance and pace trends, how this month is going against last. Your personal records sit apart: your longest run, your fastest 1K, 5K, 10K and half marathon pace. Feel Safe Here Someone bothering you? Block them with one tap and they will not show up in your lists again. Or report them to the club's admins. You can delete your own message whenever you like, and profile photos and chat go through automatic moderation. If you want to delete your account, that is in Settings too, without asking anyone. You do not have to be a club member. The race calendar and the routes are open to everyone. The app is free, no ads, no subscriptions.
