Our aim
Motivate you adopt an active life-style and overcome your own limits. The "competition" is for each with themselves, and not with the other participants! This is not a competitive race!
We offer you
Supplementary purpose and an exciting way to practice one or more sports, frequently, during the whole year, for fun. You could find out more about the places you "go through" on the virtual route and you could visualize or even explore the location you reach.
Our public
Is equally represented by people who keep promising to themselves "tomorrow I'll start exercising", as well as those who already started or are experienced athletes.
How does it work
Participants gradually upload the real-life mileage of their regular workouts into their account, thus advancing on the virtual map towards the Finish line. Mileage from real-life races is also eligible to upload.

We offer Duathlon and Triathlon packages for super-active people who need a supplementary challenge; any two or three sports could be combined, with any distance options. For these packages, there are discounts available.
Additionally, you could take part in the Teams Challenge
Team members enroll individually, on the “national” routes, according to the options above (their individual challenge to complete); the mileage contributed by all team members (regardless of the sport) is added to define the advance of the team on the desired global route (two distance options available: the 22.519 km terrestrial route or the 40.075 km equatorial route). One can create or join a team (which may contain up to 40 members) upon registration or later on, from their personal account.
Terrestrial route: 22.519 km
the longest possible terrestrial route on Earth
Equatorial route: 40.075 km
around the globe, on its circumference
