Uber Marathon for Foursquare

Uber Marathon for Foursquare -- The Marathon edition of Uber Checkin

Approximately 1 year ago, we were asked by Dennis Crowley, co-founder of Foursquare to help him auto checkin to the foursquare mile markers while he was running the Boston Marathon using our app Uber Checkin. This worked so well that we wanted to share this functionality with all marathon runners for free and so we created Uber Marathon, a free app that marathon runners can use to auto checkin to their marathon markers!

Uber Marathon takes the best parts of Uber Checkin and makes it incredibly easy to use for marathon runners... And its free!

Features:
- Easily add all the foursquare Mile Markers for a marathon. We have have already pre-configured the Mile Markers for a number of marathons… if the marathon your running in isn’t listed, get in touch and we will add it!
- Auto checkin to the foursquare Mile Markers and share / tweet your checkins so your friends and family can follow your progress in realtime on Twitter or Facebook! See an example below.
- Optimal battery usage to ensure you still have battery after your run is over.
- Uber Marathon is free to use and your Foursquare checkin shout will always include the Foursquare place name e.g. the marathon marker name. However if you would like to buy us a coffee, doing so will remove all ads and will allow you to customize your Foursquare checkin shout!

Uber Checkin was used by Dennis Crowley, co-founder of Foursquare during the Boston Marathon!
