Run & own Barcelona.
Beach, parks and the hill of Montjuïc — Barcelona is a perfect map to paint your colour.
Stride turns your runs in Barcelona into a territory game: every loop you run claims the real area you enclose on a live map — and rivals try to steal it back. The streets are unclaimed. For now.
