Strava to Acquire Runna, A Leading Running Training App

The world's biggest team has a new coach

SAN FRANCISCO, April 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Strava, the app for active people, today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Runna, a UK-headquartered tech company developing personalized running training plans and coaching. The acquisition unites the world's largest fitness community with a leading app in the fiercely competitive running training space, creating compelling value for users and shareholders of both companies.

"Coming off Strava's accelerated innovation and unprecedented growth last year, it was the right time to look for complementary businesses that could create even greater value for our users," said Michael Martin, chief executive officer, Strava. "Running is booming worldwide—nearly 1 billion runs were recorded on Strava in 2024. Runna's mission to give every runner a personalized plan to achieve their goal is a perfect fit."

According to Strava's Year In Sport data, running is the fastest growing sport globally, and Gen Z in particular are turning to running to create community and connection. This has created a sharp increase in race participation, with 43% of Strava users wanting to conquer a big race or event in 2025. Demand for training plans has grown quickly as more athletes look for personalized guidance.

"We are delighted to become part of Strava as we continue to focus on bringing the world the most customized and personalized training plans available," said Dom Maskell, co-founder and chief executive officer, Runna. "We have spent many hours together with Strava senior management and we couldn't be more excited to be on the same team," he added. "Our passion is to give every runner a training plan and access to amazing coaching and this investment allows us to make even more improvements to everything we do at Runna, benefiting runners worldwide" said Ben Parker, co-founder.

"I have been deeply impressed with Dom, Ben and the Runna team," said Martin. "Our plan is to keep the apps separate for the foreseeable future, to invest in growing the Runna team and further accelerate the development of the Runna app."

The deal is part of Strava's ongoing initiatives to innovate for its 150+ million registered users and represents deep investment in Strava's API developer community. Over 100 training apps currently connect to Strava's API in order to provide users with enhanced features and functionality. Strava remains firmly committed to maintaining this role as the open platform for fitness and to supporting all developers, alongside Runna. "We are thrilled to have this opportunity to recognize and invest in an API developer like Runna," said Martin. "Strava is the community for all active people regardless of sport, skill level, location, app or device." 

The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions. Additional terms of the acquisition were not disclosed.

Strava to Acquire Runna, A Leading Running Training App

DUBAI, UAE, Dec. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- On the evening of December 14 local time, fireworks illuminated the Dubai night sky, casting a final glow over the venue as the 2025 Asian Youth Para Games drew to a close amid waves of applause. Serving as the event's official and exclusive mobility partner, Chery applied its inclusive technological expertise to support the Games from start to finish, creating numerous memorable highlights. These ranged from the joint opening announcement by the AiMOGA robot Mornine and APC Chairman Mr. Mijad, to the groundbreaking robot-led award ceremonies; from pre-competition donations of sun protection gear to all athletes, to the continuous shuttle and escort services provided by the TIGGO family fleet throughout the event. Chery was fully committed to facilitating both the preparation and the successful execution of the Games. As Zhu Shaodong, Executive Vice President of Chery International, noted in his closing ceremony address: "Chery remains guided by the principle of 'In somewhere, For somewhere, Be somewhere' in contributing to global sustainable development. Supporting sports events as a way to give back to society is both an honor and a point of pride for Chery."

In meeting its ESG commitments, Chery has established multiple world-class "green factories," driving the ongoing transformation toward sustainable manufacturing. The company also collaborates with international organizations, including the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), to engage in ecological initiatives such as seagrass conservation. At the same time, Chery maintains a long-term commitment to the well-being of people with disabilities and children, having worked with UNICEF to support education for nearly 40 million children globally. Furthermore, Chery has proactively joined forces with the Kazakhstan National Paralympic Committee and the Asian Paralympic Committee to carry out various inclusive programs. During the Chery Brand User Summit in October 2025, Chery once again took the lead in forming the ESG Global Alliance, sharing sustainable development initiatives with its worldwide dealer network and extending responsible practices across the entire value chain.

As the Games draw to a close, Chery will forge ahead—with technology as its driving force and responsibility as its cornerstone—striving not only for commercial success but also to build a more inclusive and courageous future for society at large.
