Let's Do This
Whether it's your first 5k run or your tenth Ironman triathlon, we help people discover and book their perfect challenge.
Why join us?
We're a team that share a passion for what we're building. We get a massive kick from knowing that our product helps people get outside and active, take part in life-changing experiences, and conquer personal challenges. From new hires who've never run a 5k but quickly get the running bug, to an Olympic gold medallist, we span the whole spectrum in terms of ability, but are united by a love of challenging ourselves.
We're a talented team of high-achievers, including engineers from Facebook, Google, the Guardian, and Skyscanner.
We're funded by Y Combinator (where we were one of the highest growth companies on our batch), NFX, and Shasta Ventures as well as a host of awesome angels including Paul Buchheit, Simon Nixon.

Gym/Fitness
We give everyone a $650 annual allowance to enter races and events, and we subsidise gym memberships. We also get given our fair share of free event entries by our partners, and often enter events as a team (optional, but great fun!)

Travel
We have offices (with product teams) in London and San Francisco (we also have an office in Sydney, but no product team there yet) - and are highly flexible with employees moving between offices.

Team Activities
We love getting out as a team whether running, cycling, or going out for a beer after work. Most of us have recently moved across from London, and so are doing out best to explore the trails, roads, and slopes within striking distance of the Bay Area at the weekend.

Generous Vacation
We offer employees 25 days vacation per year, along with 10 days paid holiday, allowing you to switch off, spend time with family and friends, or explore and plan multiple adventures!
