‘Trailrunning HQ’

This just came across my desk:

Trailrunner HQ is the all-in-one mobile app that delivers content and catalyzes networking for your racers, sponsors, and volunteers.

Seems to be offering the same/very similar functions as the Capra app.

What I told the Capra founders when they asked me if I wanted to take their app for a spin and utilize for my races is that the biggest problem with these apps is that it cannot replace the race directors’ regular communication. So you end up not replacing and optimizing your communication but just adding an additional layer of where you communicate with your participants. If an app like this could replace all other communications, then it would be cool, but as it stands it results in just more work.
