Cut your own routes from your runs

Any run with GPS becomes a route between two handles. It is free. It is yours for as long as you want it. It is public only if you publish it, and your runs stay private when you do.

How do you make a route on ourpr?

Open any run with GPS. Under its map, drag two handles along the route to mark the stretch. Name it. It is a route now. It appears on your map and in Your Routes, and you can plan a run against it.

Does it cost anything?

No. On Strava, the route builder needs a paid subscription. On ourpr, every runner cuts and keeps routes for free.

What does ourpr measure for a route?

Its distance, measured from the run it came from. Its climb, from the run's own height record. A run without an elevation record gives no climb, and ourpr shows a dash and never a zero. ourpr also draws the route on a real map, so you recognise it by its ground.

Can you adjust a route after you cut it?

Yes. Move either end along the same run, and ourpr measures it again. You can also rename a route, or forget it.

Can other runners see your routes?

Only the ones you publish. A switch on the route's page makes it public. A public route has its own page and a link you can send to anyone.

What does a public route show?

The ground and nothing else: the name, the line, the distance and the climb. It shows no owner, no note, no start point and no run. A visitor who opens it sees their own runs over that ground, computed from their own history. Your runs stay private.

Can you keep a route another runner published?

Yes. Tap Keep, and a copy lands in your routes as a private route. The copy stays yours if the original is unpublished or deleted.

Can you take a route back?

Yes. Turn the switch off, and the public page is gone at once. ourpr cannot take back a link that somebody already opened.

A route starts as a stretch. Compare a stretch across every run, or bring your runs in.
