Tracking Your Run …
Runners can track their run on race day by using the RYCS Tracking App , which needs to be downloaded from the Google Play or Apple App Store . The App will track your progress on your actual race route on the day , while also showing your ‘ virtual position ’ on the original Maputo 10K event route . It will also provide real-time tracking of your splits , overall position , and ranking in the event , and your result will automatically display on the App and be pulled through to the Event Website . ( Be sure to do a practice run with the App before race day .)
Alternatively , there is also a manual process where runners can track their run using a sports watch , fitness tracker , mobile phone or Strava . They then need to load their results manually to the Maputo 10K website .
