Recommendation from Matthew Mok (Race Organizer)
Victoria 162 is glad to have partnered with TRAILME and showcased a smooth virtual challenge. Prior to 2022, runners out there running our virtuals were manually tracked and moved using google map pins around the clock, which was extremely taxing for a 100-mile race held for a 1-month period. TRAILME tackled that exact issue, allowing the organizing committee to track runners automatically and go to bed everyday with some peace of mind. Given the preparation period was only 2 weeks prior to challenge start day, it was a monumental task to set up the back end – with our distinct course of 162km covering as far as Tai O in Lantau to Quarry Bay on the island, and 5 sub-distances … but TRAILME prevailed and delivered. What was most treasurable was the collaboration – as an organizer we were trusted and trained by TRAILME to deploy and collect trackers out on the course, giving us strong sense of ownership to the process and in turn sped up the race set up. Backend a breeze to use with useful stats, with the accompanying registration portal also easy to set up. Most importantly, questions from us or runners were dealt with swiftly. TRAILME would be our go-to choice for virtual race in future.
