Using social to find similar runners
Smashrun’s social features are designed to enable you to find similar runners.

Connect with your friends and learn from other runners
One of things we’ve always liked about Smashrun is that it’s a personal dashboard for your running.

Introducing PR Progress
Hurrah! Today we released a new Smashrun PRO feature called “PR Progress”, which you’ll find within the Analyze section. First off, a PR (or sometimes called a PB) is a personal record/personal best. You set a new PR every time you run faster for a given distance. Regardless of how fast a runner you are,… Read more »
