@ Nostr Run Club
2025-01-29 15:50:38
I created [Nostr Run Club](https://nostr-run-club.vercel.app/) because I was using Nike Run app and wanted to be more "nostr only." When I didn't see a run tracking app on nostr, I decided to build one myself. It's pretty basic right now, but it works!
## What's Working Now
The app currently lets you:
- Login with Nostr
- Track your runs
- Post runs to Nostr
- See and interact with a global running feed
## Coming Soon
I'm working on adding:
- Wavlake integration for music
- E-cash features
- Achievements, Rewards and Goals
## Future Ideas
Some cool things I'd like to build:
- Team features
- Virtual races
- Merch for runners
## The Dream
My vision for the app is pretty straightforward - I want to wake up on a Monday morning, grab my phone and headphones, and:
- Connect with my run team on nostr
- Play my favorite Wavlake playlist
- Join a virtual morning training session with nostr freaks
- Maybe prep for an upcoming virtual 5k
- Get rewarded for my runs
- Share my achievements with one click
- Level up and unlock badges
- Maybe buy some NRC socks through shopstr
- Zap fellow runners for experience points
I'd also love to see custom themes, nostr banner integration, and eventually create a standard way to store run data on nostr so we can share between apps.
## Development Plan
Right now I'm focusing on:
Stage 1: Getting Things Right
- Fixing bugs
- Making it run smoother
- Cleaning up the code
Stage 2: Adding Fun Stuff
- Wavlake integration
- Level system
- Rewards
Stage 3: Building Community
- Nostr group features
- Merch
- Races
