Guest Post from Racing for Sustainability. Tina Muir loves working with some of the world’s biggest races on their sustainability initiatives, but she couldn’t help but feel a disconnect between them and more “typical” races – ones that don’t have big budgets...
Ever since the COVID pandemic pricing for most things have been a bit in flux. And races are no different. In 2020 we saw artificially low race prices since essentially all events were virtual and overhead costs were much lower. 2023 was…

We have a Timer Success Position open and are seeking a Timer who wants to transition from timing to a full-time position at RunSignup. This role will provide a meaningful impact in helping to modernize the timing community
Our live Timer Tip Tuesday webinars are a valuable resource for timers. We use these to provide product education on the latest technology, share tips on timer tools, and answer timers questions. In addition, we sometimes host a timer to share their best practices with others and dive into their timing business. We are now inviting timers to host their own Timer Tip Tuesday or other webinar to cover topics they feel other timers or their race organizers will be interested in. Timers can take advantage of this to share information with fellow timers or to help inform race organizers of the various tools and services timers bring to the race.
This update introduces new features for Lap Events, particularly for “Last Man Standing” style races, where the last finisher of each lap is eliminated from the course. The new Report Fields that have been added allow Timers to create custom leaderboard reports…
We just completed the 2024 Winter Timer Tour where our EventDay team traveled to four cities to meet with nearby timers. We took the opportunity to give an updated on our RaceDay Suite of timer technology, show product demos, answer specific product questions, and get feedback for our development team. In addition, we shined the spotlight on those timers in attendance who completed all four RunSignup timer certifications and announced the 2024 Alan Jones Timer of the Year award winner, Adam Shelton with Start2Finish. Special thanks to all of you who braved the weather conditions and joined us. It was so great to be able to see you in person!
Unless you host something like the New York City Marathon, chances are you want more people at your event. And with race participation numbers getting back to pre COVID levels in 2023, there’s a lot of opportunity to attract new people to…
We have been doing the US race registration market analysis every 6 months for many years. We include a ton of analytical data, and also include our analysis of happenings and directions in the market (of course that analysis is done from our perspective and is sometimes biting to competitors, but tries to be honest). This began because we as a business need to take a hard look at how we are doing against a competitive landscape and figured as long as we were doing the analysis, we would share it.
