A challenge with people you like.
Most steps, most goal days, or one big number you reach together, even a real trail like Hadrian's Wall. Today's race is drawn as a road, so you can see who is a few hundred steps ahead. The host sets the dates and the way it is scored: count only the lunch hour, cap a day, or hide today's numbers until midnight if you enjoy the suspense. The dates and the goal stay fixed once people are in.
Told back to you, every morning.
Open a circle and yesterday is a short story: a podium, the margin, who reached the goal and who cheered. Give the circle a face with any emoji or a photo, and put a picture of today's walk on the day for everyone in it to see.
Walk to somewhere.
One tap starts a walk. Or pick a landmark, the Brooklyn Bridge or the length of Central Park, a trail, or just a distance, and your iPhone counts you there. Let it draw the walk and you get the route on a map, the real distance and the shape of where you went, with the clock on your lock screen the whole way.
Three miles, back to your door.
Say how far you feel like walking and Stridely finds a few loops from where you stand that end where they begin, on real footpaths, with the streets named. Pick one and go, or draw your own route on the map and the line follows the pavements as you tap.
Keep the good ones.
Save a walk as a route, or the loop you liked, and walk it again with the old line under the new. Send it to a friend inside a link, so we never hold a map of where you go. Every walk is kept, with its splits and its pace, and any of them can be a picture for your story.
Little steps, adding up.
Your week, your month, your goal streak. One day under goal each week rests the streak instead of breaking it. Weeks, months and the hours of your walking day as charts you can drag across, badges that climb from bronze to gold, and your distance measured in real places you have walked as far as.
A ring for every day.
Each day is a ring toward your goal, rest days keep a small moon, and any day opens to its steps, distance, floors and the photo you took on that walk.
Every month, told back to you.
Your biggest day, your longest run of goal days, how far you went, and who cheered you on. A short story you can play and share, every month and at the end of the year. A widget for your home screen keeps today's number in view.
