Race
How a race works.
A contest between teams of real people. It lasts a few days. The team that moves the most wins.
- 9athletes per team
- 5leagues
- 10teams per group
- 3prizes in every group
Five steps.
Sign up your team
Pick a league and pay the entry fee in SWatt. The entry fee becomes your budget.
Pick 9 athletes
Real people, within budget. You can pick yourself too.
It locks at the start
From the start your team can’t change, until the finish.
Score every day
Your athletes move. Each role counts differently.
The podium wins SWatt
The top 3 teams in each group get a prize.
Nine spots. Each counts its own way.
On every race day each spot brings the team its athlete’s SWatt. What counts depends on the role.

A walker who runs scores nothing for the run.
The price
- It depends on the role: see above.
- The higher of 28 days ago and today applies.
- It goes up 20% for every other team in the group that already has the athlete.
- It stays what it was when you picked.
ExampleLuca is worth 200 as a runner. Two teams in the group already have him: for you he costs 280.
The budget
- It equals the league’s entry fee.
- Your 9 athletes’ prices together can’t go over it.
- It only exists inside the race.
- What you spend goes to the athletes as salary.
Your team locks at the start.
Until the start, pick and change as much as you like. From the start, no changes and no new spots until the finish.
Fill all 9 spots in time: an empty spot scores nothing.
Race dates.
Sign-up
You sign up and pick your athletes.
Sign-up closes
No new teams. You can still adjust yours.
Start
Teams lock. Points start counting.
Finish
Standings are final. Then prizes are paid.
ExampleWeAreBack race: sign-up from 11 to 13 October until 22:00, start on the 14th at 00:01, finish on the 18th at 23:59. Italian time.
Five leagues. Prizes in every group.
The entry fee is also your budget for athletes. Each league is split into groups of 10 teams: you only race against yours.
| League | Entry and budget | 1st place | 2nd place | 3rd place |
|---|---|---|---|---|
 Arcade | 1,000 | 5,000 | 2,500 | 1,500 |
 Silver | 5,000 | 25,000 | 12,500 | 7,500 |
 Gold | 10,000 | 50,000 | 25,000 | 15,000 |
 Platinum | 20,000 | 100,000 | 50,000 | 30,000 |
 Diamond | 50,000 | 250,000 | 125,000 | 75,000 |
SWatt values from the October 2026 race. They can change from race to race: the app shows the current ones.
Standings and prizes
- Each group has its own standings, live in the app.
- They update every time an athlete uploads an activity.
- After the finish, the top 3 teams win SWatt.
- The manager wins the prize, not the athletes’ SWatt.
Get picked, earn a salary
As an athlete you don’t sign up: managers pick you.
- The price paid for you becomes your salary.
- It is split equally over the race days.
- Each day’s share arrives only if you move that day.
- If several teams pick you, you get a salary from each.
- Your own SWatt stay yours: the salary comes on top.
ExampleYou cost 400 SWatt and the race lasts 5 days: 80 a day. You move on 4 of the 5 days: you get 320 SWatt.
