Safety for trail and ultra runners
Trail running combines the two hardest things to cover: remote ground and real speed. You can be moving fast, far from a road, in fading light. Live tracking plus a stationary alert is the backup that lets you push into the backcountry alone.
Staying safe when you run alone
01Use stationary alerts on technical descents
The rolled ankle or the fall you cannot walk off is the risk. Let your phone notice when you stop and can't get up.
02Share long efforts by default
On an all-day effort, a live breadcrumb lets crew and family know whether you are on pace or in trouble without texting.
03Plan for dead zones
Your last recorded point is the search anchor. Start sharing early and keep your phone charged for the whole route.
Questions trail runners ask
Can crew follow my ultra live?
Yes. Share the link once and your crew watches your position at each stretch, no app needed on their end.
What if I fall on a remote trail?
Holler detects the prolonged stop and alerts your Guardians with your last location, so a search starts from the right place.
