Draw it here, run it anywhere. Your routes stay on your device and are never stored by Just Running.


for runners

Tap in the turns of your run. It follows real paths, plans your pace, and goes straight to your watch.

Organising an event? Route Maker for organisers makes maps for your event page.

1. Draw your run

Tap the map where your run starts, then at each turn, and Route Maker follows the paths and roads in between. Or let it suggest a loop. On a computer you can also switch to Trace and draw it with the mouse.

2. Plan your pace

Pick a goal and get a split for every kilometre or mile. With hills on, uphill splits get slower and downhill ones faster so your effort stays even.

Your goal

per km

Your pace is how fast you'd go on the flat.

Starting

Draw a route first and your splits appear here.

3. Along the way

What's underfoot, where it gets hard, and where to find water and a loo.

    4. Send it to your watch

    Download your route as a GPX file and import it into your watch or app.

    Garmin, COROS, Strava, Suunto and more

    Your GPX file

      Getting it onto your watch

      1. Garmin

        On a computer, open Garmin Connect, go to Training & Planning, then Courses, and choose Import. Pick the GPX file, save it, then Send to Device. The Connect phone app can't import files.

      2. COROS

        Download the GPX on your phone, open it from your downloads and share it to the COROS app. It's saved to your routes, ready to sync. COROS Training Hub on a computer imports routes too.

      3. Strava

        On the Strava website, open My Routes, choose Create New Route and use the upload button to add the GPX file. Strava only lets subscribers import routes.

      4. Suunto, Apple Watch and others

        Most apps have an Import route option that takes GPX: the Suunto app, Komoot, WorkOutDoors and Footpath all do.

      5. Placing points

        Zoom in so paths are easy to see. Put a point at each turn or junction: the route follows the paths between your points, so a long straight needs only one at each end. If it goes the wrong way, undo and add a point on the path you want.

      6. Sharing and saving

        Your latest route is kept in this browser, so it's still here next time. Nothing is saved on our servers.
