Race Day App

Technical Details...

For the rest of this page, we refer to the runner as runner and the coach/parent/friend who is using this app to watch the race and view the runner's progress as you or onlooker.

Race Day App has several features, built for use by cross country runners and spectators.


Race Day App utilizes the bluetooth in a Garmin watch and iPhone to transfer data from a Garmin to a phone in real-time during a race or workout. Due to the nature of bluetooth, an onlooker needs to be within a few feet of the runner when he or she runs by, in order to have the best chance of receiving data about the runner's run. Once the data has been transfered to the phone, however, that data is sent to the cloud, where it can be viewed by any onlooker in the runner's team.


We information about data about the runner's heart rate, pace, distance, laps, cadence, and activity state. Additionally, we may store the runner's name, as well as information about accounts that the onlooker has set up in Race Day App.
