Final pitch by #jpreneur students John Stevenson, Aidan Galasso, Robert Kohler, Darius Hence. Where to Run is an app designed to help runners find the best routes when traveling.
2. Where does Joe run?
• Dedicated runners don‟t
have a reliable place to
find routes while traveling
• Current running route
resources are cluttered,
fragmented and
unreliable
3. Joe is not alone
• “I was in Washington D.C. and I was in a really
dangerous area and wasn't sure where to run.”
• “...a route posted by a local running group took me
over a bridge that was clearly not for pedestrians at
all. I was so scared of either getting hit by a car or
falling into the water the whole time.”
• Would be amazing to have an app or website for
nationwide trails/running paths... With the ability for
others to rate and/or comment on said trails/paths
