StrideInto
Your race. Your story. Your impact. Find your next start line, then make it count for more than a finish time.
One page for every race you run, and the cause you run it for.
Give the miles a reason.
StrideInto connects people who run for a cause with the people and businesses who want to support them. It is being built in two parts: an honest directory of the races themselves, and a place for athletes to turn a race into something that matters to more people than them.
The race directory is live. Marathons, half marathons and shorter events across the United States, each with its own page covering the date, distances, start times, entry prices and a link to enter, curated by hand and checked against the organiser before it is published.
The athlete platform is in development. Runners on the waitlist will be among the first in when it opens, in time to build their page before their next race rather than during it.
A runner's story is scattered everywhere.
Times live in a watch app, photos in a camera roll, and fundraising on a page that expired two weeks after the race. And sponsorship tends to go to people with a shoe deal, not to the everyday runner with a race in the calendar and a reason to run it.
Start with the race, then build the runner's page around it.
Every runner starts by looking for their next race, so the directory came first: useful on its own, and the natural way in. The athlete page then holds everything around it, from results and personal bests to the backers and the cause, on a page the runner owns.
You do not have to be fast.
If you run for fun
A four-hour marathoner running for their local hospice is a better prospect for a local sponsor than a quick runner with no story.
If you race seriously
Club runner, age-grouper, chasing a qualifier. Put the record of it somewhere people can find, instead of retyping it every season.
If you do this for a living
A page you own rather than rent, holding your results, your backers and the cause you put your name to.
Live now, and on the way.
Race discovery
Every race in one list, filterable by state and distance, with an option to show only races with registration open. Browse pages for each distance and each state make it just as easy to find from search.
A page per race
The date, a countdown to race day, each distance with its start time and entry price, the organiser, and a direct link to enter, plus related races to look at next.
Checked, and dated
Listings are checked against the organiser before they go live, and every race page says when its details were last checked and against what source.
Build your page
Coming soon. Your story, your next race and the cause behind it. Private while you build it, public the moment you are ready.
Log every race
Coming soon. Every event you finish, with the distance, the date and the time, and personal bests marked as personal bests rather than buried in a spreadsheet.
Let people back you
Coming soon. Price the spots on your kit, approve exactly who appears on them, and watch the total raised for your cause climb on your profile.
A look around.
Common questions.
What is live today?
The race directory. Marathons, half marathons and shorter races across the United States, each with its own page. The athlete platform, where runners build a page, log results and raise money, is in development, and the waitlist is open.
Where does the race information come from?
Every listing is curated by hand and checked against the organiser or the official entry page before it is published. Each race page says when its details were last checked and where they were checked against.
Is it only for fast runners?
No. The whole idea is that sponsorship and fundraising are not reserved for people with a shoe deal. A four-hour marathoner running for their local hospice is as welcome as a club runner chasing a qualifier, or a professional who wants a page they own.
How will backing a runner work?
Runners will be able to price the spots on their kit, approve exactly who appears on them, and show the total raised for their cause on their profile.
Does it have a dark mode?
Yes. A toggle in the header switches the whole site between light and dark.
Fast pages, built to be found.
Built with Next.js and served from Vercel. Race pages, distance pages and state pages are each their own URL, so a runner searching for a 10K in Texas lands on a page made for exactly that. The waitlist form is protected by reCAPTCHA.
Launching something in stages?
We build the part that is useful on day one, and the waitlist for everything after it.
