About
BeatingU: Running Challenge brings the BeatingU competitive format to running. Players run timed distances of 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 5, or 10 miles, tracked with GPS that keeps working in the background, and post their times to Game Center leaderboards.
Real-time head-to-head racing, where two runners race each other live wherever they are, is planned for version 2.
It shares Vision Challenge’s design language with an orange color scheme, and is built on an MVVM architecture with an AI-assisted workflow using Claude Code.
