Reviews

Nice tee, poor color choice

"Didn’t love the graphics choice this year, while side-by-side they are different, the theme is so similar it didn’t feel uniquely different each session. Something fun and a bit more colorful is more motivating."

— Karen S. (2/5)

Annual pass review

"I was laid off at the end of 2025 so I thought signing up for the whole year would help me have accountability for intentional walking. It truly has helped me. I helped give me purpose & rack up my miles to ‘earn’ my prize. I do wish that RAA would offer season pass holders perhaps an extra or special prize or a discount on merch."

— Amy L. (4/5)

Cool app. Charge schedule was unclear.

"Love everything about it except when u sign up it’s not totally clear they are going to get their payment so quickly… - $55 down to $50? Great. - $50 every season for a total of four seasons? - Nope. 6 charges for four seasons. Every other month. - Hmmmm. Ok fine. - First charge immediately. Makes sense. I’ll pay again in two months as per the agreement… - Next charge in two months? - Nope. Next month. - Hmmm. Ok never mind. Had to cancel."

— Daniel H. (3/5)

You send very soft and fun t-shirts. I actually wear them every morning to exercise and people ask me about Run Across America.

"The t-shirts get us talking about Run Across America and the goals of the organization. People in my exercise classes are interested and commend you for what you do. Nice Thanks for all you do"

— Wendy L. (5/5)

Love the shirts

"I love your shirts! They're a nice comfy fit without being too big."

Love this community!

"I've tried many things to get exercise to be a regular part of what I do. I've tried ALL the things. There is just something about this app and this community that makes it feel low risk and motivates me. I can walk, I can run, I can do yoga, whatever and I can track it here. Sometimes I do the challenges along the way, sometimes I don't. They are there, but no pressure. I stopped participating for a year, but have come back and glad I did!"

— Teresa B. (5/5)
