                    Hi Racery Team - thanks for a great race! :) Do y’all review the possible exercise choices before the next one? Probably late to ask, but I question things like cooking and even shopping, since we are trying to encourage physical activity. Those can vary a lot in physical work but can often take a lot of time, so it seems like they may give more miles than they sometimes should.
                    1
                    Happy new year! We've revised the activity conversion slightly to favor more high-intensity activities, considering the effort involved. Feel free to reach out to team@racery.com if you have specific suggestions!
                  • BlueBird-- sisters3 Dec 30, 2023
                    Hi team--Can you please add Treadmill to the exercise choices? There are SO many other random options but treadmill is such a common one and I have always been perplexed as to why it's not listed. Thanks!

                    Hi, I'm fine now. Had some crazy stomach bug in August that set me back a couple of weeks. Kept walking but stopped logging in. Now I'm playing catch-up, entering whole months at one time. Hope to be done by the end of this week. Thank you so much for asking. Happy Holidays!

                    Team@racery.com. When will 2024 races be posted and ready for registration? @coastal_crew
                    5
                    Hi! Yearlong registration is now open here: https://yearlong.racery.com... Coupon code for early registration (before DEC 15) is raceryfriend! Cheers! @MidwifeTCoffee @GreenThumbs
                    I am unable to sign in to register for next year. My validation emails don’t arrive. They are not in my junk folder. I need to reset my pin. Please help.
                    Hello! We've reached out via email to assist.
                    @coastal_crew I see a 2024 race called the Pacific Crest Trail. It’s about 800 miles. If that works, I’ll start the ball rolling and register the Coastal Crew. Use the discount code from Team @ racery here in the Messages section
                    Wow! Thanks! I did not get any info by email.
                  • MidwifeTCoffee Cats 1 Oct 26, 2023
                    What Racery event for 2024 is a good fit for people who like this event (Orient Express)? I'm not a fandom person. I like scenery and nonstringent rules about posting miles. 😊
                    7
                    @team@Racery.com I hope you can answer my question...end of the year will be here soon.
                    @MidwifeTCoffee Hi! You're right--2024 is coming around the corner (fast)! A new year-long race will open for registration in early December. We'll send out an announcement beforehand! :)
                    @team @RacerySupport Thanks so much!
                    Looking forward to the announcement.
                    And it’s here! Yay!
                    @JillybeanB It's where?
                    Have you not received an email? It’s The Pacific Crest Trail

                    @team@racery.com Please fix the problem of Level 3 comments not posting. I suspect you consider this a feature, not a bug, to keep discussion from going too deep/long. (Why is conversation a problem, when Racery is built around community?) Having forgotten this glitch, I just posted a response to a Level 2 comment, which just disappeared into thin air— not visible on web or in app. Why did I bother to take the time to write a considered response, if you were just going to throw it away, for all practical purposes? SOLUTION POSSIBILITIES : (1) FIX THE FUNCTION and POST THE ANSWERS where they belong! (2) If you want to stay with two levels, REMOVE RESPOND LINK from Level 2 posts, so you aren’t leading users to a function that doesn’t exist. (3) DISPLAY A WARNING instead of a text box that deceives users into spending time on a response that won’t be posted. This is a kludge, in case you can’t do the above fixes. I’m taking the time to report this glitch because Racery, to my great surprise, has become a source of encouragement, advice, well, friendship! I hate exercise so without my Racery buddies to be accountable to, i can easily talk myself into staying on the couch! (This is my 3rd annual tour!) I’m making an issue out of this only because I want to keep at without fixable UI glitches! Thanks in advance!

                    Hi Sue - Really sorry about this bug. Thank you for the detailed write-up--we're looking into it.
                    @SueDfromPA Hi Sue. Thanks again for bringing this to our attention. The issue with nested comments on iOS has been addressed. Look out for a follow-up email from the Racery team!
                    Glad to hear it’s being fixed! It had been turned in before with no results. Yay for this time! 😀
                    @SueDfromPA Thank you for naming the problem and bringing it up. I took rely on the comments from the fellow exercisers to keep me going.

                    What is the total mileage for the Race. Also can we continue to add miles once individual reaches the finish line.?
                    1
                    Hey @JustRun ! This race is 690.93 miles long. You can continue to add miles in this race after reaching the finish line. The "ultramarathoners" leaderboards, below the main leaderboards, track these miles.

                    Hi Cathy! Thanks for the message! Make sure to tag "team@racery.com" if you need assistance :) Since you're in more than one race, your streak is showing up in the first post of the day in the race that it was posted :) All your posts/streaks are on your profile: https://racery.com/cactus If I'm not touching on anything else that you're experiencing please let me know!
                    @Racery_Support that’s good info on the first post of the day having the streak posted, and that it won’t show up on both.
                    I'm doing a marathon fundraiser, too, so my streak shows up there if I posted there first.@QueenofHaartz+C

                    @team@racery.com our friend and athlete known as @Cactus had her streak vanish, she was almost at 700 days. She hasn’t missed a day that we can tell, how could she get it fixed? That’s an incredible streak. Any advice?
                    3
                    Little more info, Cactus had day 640 streak on April 7th, had a post on the 8th but no streak then or further days.
                    @QueenofHaartz+C Good catch, thanks so much for letting us know!! @Cactus We're sorry about the lapse. Congratulations on your humongous streak!! It should be back up to date now :) If this ever happens again, please "at" us in chat so that we can restore it ASAP! We'll monitor Cactus's streak in the coming days to make sure it updates correctly.
                    Thank you Racery staff!

                    Team@racery.com Hi, I posted a question to the team@racery.com yesterday and can no longer see it in order to see if there is a reply. 🙃 It shows that there was one new message on the message board today, but I can’t tell if it was a reply to mine or not. ???
                    2
                    Since I posted this, I can see the other one now. No response yet though. Why don’t the messages always show up?
                    Hi @TNvic ! Thank you for your reports! I'm consolidating my response here :) Firstly, a racer deleted their account manually for what you described to occur. Regarding messaging, I'm sorry you're experiencing some trouble accessing messages. I can't give you insight remotely as to what you're currently experiencing. Emailing team@racery.com is the best route for tech q's and bug reports. By the way, we have a bug report logged about some specific iOS app bugs you have experienced with messages showing up. We're investigating and will keep you updated. Meanwhile, reloading or using a browser are good temporary solutions if you experience any trouble with chat functionality.

                    Anyone else been a little disappointed in the scenery along our route in this race? Maybe my mileage points have just not landed in very interesting spots. :) Seems like it’s been just the highway for a long time. 🙃 If anyone has a really good mileage point, please share. Thanks!
                    6
                    @TNvic I agree. They've been disappointing. I hope people will share scenic mileage points (what I call "red dots").
                    Yes I agree its been agricultural land and highway,highway,highway...yet there are beautiful rivers,hills and mountains in Romania...
                    Yes, it seems the towns are very small and most of the views are of the countryside. I have enjoyed the scenery even though it has been very ordinary. It reminds me that Hungary is really very much like North Carolina and we all have a lot in common.
                    I like seeing the big sky agriculture views, but mostly just get tired of the highway views where you can’t even see a view.
                    It's google and that usually means road scenes. But I got one that was inside a restaurant that I was surprised about, and then along the beach - still google maps from the road, but at the water, a fisherman fiddling with his fishing pole, two young gals walking by the water (so typical!) and a dog lounging in what looks like a bus stop. in town and city shots will probably provide more entertainment than on the road from town to town, city to city.
                    Mike marker 326.1 (I was there 6/28) shows a really interesting building.
                  • QueenofHaartz Competitive Lions Jan 27, 2023
                    @RacerySupport are there any guidelines for posting miles the day they were earned?
                    4
                    Good question
                    Hiya. There's a two week guideline for backdating. For reference, it's noted in the about section for the race.
                    @Racery_Support thank you! Should have thought to look there before asking! I appreciate your help.
                    No problem!
                  • MidwifeTCoffee Cats 1 Jan 17, 2023
                    Would it be possible to fix the typo "ect." that shows up in some activities? (Change to etc.). I have requested this in several Racery events and the request has been honored. 😊♥️ #spellingteam
                    2
                    Yes! Fixed sitewide. Sorry about that, thank you for pointing it out :)
                    @Racery_Support Thanks so much! I've been enjoying the real word.
                  • QueenofHaartz Competitive Lions Jan 10, 2023
                    Does anyone know why the teams disappeared from the map? I thought this was a team event and not an individual event.
                    8
                    I think the idea is that you can join a team if you want, but it's more of an individual race. The teams are in the leaderboard though - you Lions are kicking butt. :)
                    @BookMasterJMV Interesting, that's not how we thought it was promoted, but I emailed them and they can respond, guessing you are correct. I would have skipped this and just stuck with FRTW
                    Hey QueenofHaartz. I don't think we got your email. I want to make sure you sent it to the right address: team@racery.com.
                    So I figured out something else, the race might actually be 690.9 miles not 650. We saw the 690.9 number used on a location map. Then I clicked on the team icon and it showed up on the map! So it can toggle between individual and team, that's really cool feature.
                    Sorry about that! We revised race route to track the Orient Express a little more closely and get better street views. The route is 690 miles.
                    This is still a team race! The team leaderboard is on and team awards will go out both when teams complete the distance AND when the year is over. As in last year's race, team avatars are off on the map because teams will quickly be loop the 690 mile route, making their positions meaningless and cluttering up the individual avatars.
                    @Racery_Support thank you for answering me! I forwarded the email anyway so you could see what I was trying to say but I think we are all set. We are having a great time competing as a team and appreciate the Racery platform.
                    I like this being an individual race too. I'm in it for the full year and look forward to all the Google view stops. I screenshot them all.
                  • MidwifeTCoffee Cats 1 Jan 8, 2023
                    For this event, I am logging intentional miles only (walk, run, elliptical, swim, row). I just did 1.5 miles on the elliptical but using the algorithm, it shows up as 2.5 (26 minutes of elliptical). Is it "OK" to just give myself the straight miles for this?
                    2
                    Sounds good to me, MTC! Track what you feel represents your exercise best and what you'll feel comfortable tracking throughout the year. If you are seeing 1.5 miles on your elliptical, I think that's the most accurate!
                    Thanks!

                    Where would you put strength training or weight Training when you your activity for the day
                    1
                    I tried several ways to document the exercises I do which don't have names. I think racery focuses mostly on aerobic activities. Look for an activity which generates an equivalent amount of sweat or heavy breathing?
                  • Ukrainian sisters3 Jan 4, 2023
                    It would be nice if strength training or resistance band are on or what category would it fit under
                    1
                    Hey Ukrainian. I think this would best fit under "moderate activity (yoga, weights, etc)." "Vigorous activity" is ~7 miles/hour, moderate is ~3 miles/hours and weights are ~2miles/hour. Feel free to choose what you think tracks your progress best.

                    I noticed that hiking is not listed as an activity anymore. I use that one quite a bit for walks I take where I am training on hills. They are not quite “mountain climbing” worthy, but definitely more than just walking. Any chance hiking can make a return to the list? Thank you!
                    3
                    that's too bad about hiking, I like to go for hikes and they definitely take more effort than a normal walk.
                    would backpacking work? Not sure if that is heavy pack camping or just going on a trailhead with a pack. I always wear a pack hiking especially in the winter for safety reasons.
                    Good news…. Hiking is on the list now!

                      Race with four friends in 2023 from Budapest to Istanbul. Tracing the iconic train ride, this race will cover the eastern half of the Orient Express. This year with postcards! Do the full 690 miles, or multiple loops. Individual avatars will appear on the route, but there will also be extra competition in a leaderboard of teams of five. Captains, you'll race for free when your team fills! All kinds of exercise welcome, converted into route miles by Racery! 

                      Exercise anywhere you want. Then log the activity and see your avatar move across the route. Catch a Google Street View of the new virtual locale, then cheer your real fellow racers! Share your bib on social media! Brag about your streaks or longest mileage!

                      The route reflects the original route of the Orient Express, crossing the Black Sea after docking in Constanta. Your last stretch will be in Istanbul after "getting off the ferry!"

                      We've got racers all over the globe! So to keep everyone on the same page, we've come up with some handy guidelines:


                      1. Watch this video of Racery pro tips.

                      2. Complete your bio. Include #groups to better track friends or colleagues.

                      3. Update your passcode in settings.

                      4. If your race includes activity conversions, we try to keep the playing field level, and conversions are based on effort, ie 1 hour cycling = ~1 hour swimming = ~1 hour tennis. Please log cycling minutes, not miles.

                      5. To delete a log, click its gear on the right.

                      6. Don’t like one type of email? Unsubscribe at the bottom of that email.

                      7. If you post on social media, please include #raceryapp so we can find you!

                      8. We rely on the honor system. You don't have to use a device to prove your miles, a good map or watch suffices.

                      9. Only log intentional exercise please.

                      10. Attribute your exercise to the appropriate day—don't combine workouts from multiple days.

                      11. Only backdate logs for a race up to two weeks in the past.

                      12. Activities submitted after the race ends will not count toward race leaderboards.
