Route & Course

Overview

The route editor lets you create and visualise the running course, cycling route or other competition course for your event. The route is displayed on an interactive map and can be shown to participants on the website and in the app.

Creating a Route

You have two options for creating a route:

• Draw on Map – Place markers on the map to define the course point by point. The distance is calculated automatically.
• Import File – Upload a GPX or KML file containing the course. The route is automatically displayed on the map.

Route Details

• Name – Give the route a label (e.g. "Half Marathon" or "10 km Loop").
• Distance – The total distance is calculated automatically and can be adjusted manually.
• Laps – Enter the number of laps if the course is run multiple times.
• Category – Assign the route to a category.
• Start Location & Country – Define the starting point and country of the event.

Elevation Profile

For imported routes with elevation data an elevation profile chart is generated automatically. This helps participants assess the difficulty of the course and prepare accordingly.
