Communication and Apps

Tracking Runners

Teams, volunteers, spectators and family/friends at home can track progress of each team/runner via the RaceJoy App

A few notes:

  • Runners must run with their phone and "start" their leg in the app when they beginning running each leg
  • The app is dependent on cell phone service, so may be spotty in certain areas

This is a new text field ready for your content.
