Questions
Where do runfarwhere's races come from?
runfarwhere's races come from registration sites, the Western States qualifier and Golden Ticket lists, the UTMB World Series race list and races' own websites, gathered into one database and corrected by hand where they were wrong. Each race's page links to the race's own site — check details there before you book travel.
How many race pages can I read on runfarwhere for free?
All of them. Searching, browsing and every race's page are free without limit: its facts, the course on a map, the shape of its profile, and its measured distance and climbing. runfarwhere Premium adds each course mile by mile.
Does every race on runfarwhere have a full course?
Not yet. Every race on runfarwhere has its facts; races with a course file are marked with a dot in the race list, and more are being added. Each race's page says what Premium holds for it before you pay for anything.
How much does runfarwhere Premium cost, and can I cancel?
runfarwhere Premium costs $5 a month or $40 a year, paid through Stripe. You can cancel from your account page at any time; Premium runs to the end of the period you've paid for and doesn't renew after that.
Do I need an account to search runfarwhere?
No. Searching, describing the race you want and browsing runfarwhere need no account, and neither does reading any race's page. An account is only for Premium, and it has no password — you sign in with a link sent to your email.
Can I download a race's course for my watch?
Yes, with runfarwhere Premium. Every race with a course has its GPX file to download, exactly as it was published, ready to load onto a watch or into a route planner.
How is a course's distance and climbing measured?
runfarwhere measures each course from its course file. Distance is measured along the ground and scaled to the race's stated length; climbing adds up every rise in elevations read every 25 metres along the track, and grades are smoothed over 100 metres so short, steep pitches still show.
Something on a race page is wrong. How do I fix it?
Email runfarwhere and it will be fixed. Corrections stick: once a fact has been put right by hand, no later import writes over it.
