    • Runner's territory
    • Only runners who allowed it are shown.

    Modes

    Pick how you want to compete. Every mode works with the same run, so one workout counts everywhere.

    Blocks

    Start at a point, run a loop on any route and come back to the same point. The whole area inside the loop becomes yours, in your colour and with your name. A rival can cut a piece off with their own loop; win it back with new runs.

    Time

    Fixed routes of 1, 3, 5 and 10 km. Routes are visible to everyone, results go to Top 1, 3, 5 and 10 tables.

    Side challenges

    Pins on the map: a lighthouse, a staircase, a sunrise. Small goals for runs that are not about speed.

    Olympus

    A seasonal race up Mount Olympus (Chionistra) in Troodos, 1,952 m. The best get a physical medal.

    How it works

    1. RunTrack with the app or import from your watch through Apple Health, Health Connect, GPX or FIT.
    2. Close loopsCome back to where you started and the area inside your route turns your colour.
    3. DefendRivals see the map with a delay and can take blocks back. Run again to win them.

    About

    Akros Run is a running tracker with competitions: blocks, timed races, challenges and medals. Made in Cyprus. Android first, then iOS.

    Privacy first

    No live dots

    Nobody sees where you are right now. Public views are delayed and private zones around home are hidden.

    Crowds, not people

    Activity on the map is shown only as a number, and only when 5 or more runners are present.

    Minimal data

    Raw tracks are used only for checks and your own history. You can delete your account in the app.

    No passwords

    Sign in with an email code, Google, Apple or Telegram. Nothing to leak.
