About ARC

A verified home for a runner’s whole story.

We started ARC because every existing tool flattens running into something smaller than it is — a highlight reel, a wall of data, a list of links. Every runner deserves a real home for the whole arc. We’re starting with a small cohort of runners to prove it.

The runner owns the story.

You write the profile. You choose the photos. You decide what to share. Our job is to host the page and make it look the part.

Verification is the product.

Results checked against official databases, training synced from Strava, identity confirmed. A verified badge that actually means something.

Story before numbers.

The comeback, the reason you lace up, the arc behind the athlete — that comes first. Metrics support the story; they don’t replace it.

Community over vanity.

Followers, run clubs, and people who show up on race day — not a leaderboard sorted by follower count.

Why not them

More than a bio link.

Instagram

A highlight reel with no context. A race photo gets 200 likes and disappears. ARC keeps the whole arc in one place — verified and lasting.

Strava

Great for training data, but it buries your story under splits and segments. ARC leads with who you are, then backs it with the numbers.

A link-in-bio

A list of links says nothing about the runner behind them. ARC is the destination that link should point to.
