Run the real world
The whole planet is rebuilt in blocks from open map data: your streets, buildings, parks and coastline. Everywhere you haven't run is fog. Head out and the streets light up behind you.
Real streets. Real runs. One block city.
Run your streets.
Own your block.
Every street you run turns your colour. Run it more than anyone else this month and your flag goes up. Stop running, and someone takes it.
How it works
The map is grey.
Your runs paint it.
Claim the street
Every real street is a piece of territory. Whoever has run it the most in the last 30 days owns it. It turns your colour and your flag goes up with your name on it.
Hold it, or lose it
Rivals can take your street by out-running you on it. You'll get a ping when it happens, plus exactly how many metres you need to win it back.
The 30-day rule
Somebody just took
your street.
Ownership is about who keeps showing up, not who sprints once. Your metres on a street count for 30 days, so the only way to keep it is to keep running it.
Wharf Road
Owned by Mia_K
Run 321 m more on this street to take it back.
Build to defend
Your kilometres are
building materials.
Every run pays out in blocks. Spend them on your own streets to make them harder to take.
Street lamp
Your metres on nearby streets count extra.
Watchtower
Rivals have to out-run you by a quarter to take the streets around it.
Supply post
Run past it and earn more materials.
Your home
Start with a cabin. Level it up to a crystal castle.
Lose a street and the buildings next to it go dark. Win it back and they light up again.
Crews & block bosses
Run alone.
Conquer together.
Join a crew and your streets add up. Crews battle every week for total territory. Hold the most street length in a neighbourhood and you're its Block Boss, until someone takes the crown.
- Territory board, crew battles and weekly distance rankings
- Activity feed that shows who took which street
- Daily quests, neighbourhood badges and early-morning bonuses

Bring your watch
Track live with your phone's GPS, or import a GPX file from your watch or favourite running app.
Fair by design
Car-speed segments and GPS jumps don't count. Only real runs move the leaderboard.
Private by default
Your location is only used while you run. You choose whether your profile is public.
Your block is waiting.
RunBlock is in beta. Join the waitlist and we'll let you know when it opens in your city.
