Run & own Berlin.
Flat, fast and famous for its marathon — Berlin is a runner’s city through and through, with parks made for claiming.
Stride turns your runs in Berlin 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.
