B.A.A. Marathon App Reviews

I loved being able to track My Heroes during the marathon. And I love that you call them My Heroes

The greatest sporting event in the world finally gets its own app!!!

All in all I like the idea of the app but its a little on the slow side. Speed aside the age is incorrect for the majority of runners since it appears only birth year is being used to calculate age on race day. The standard for running events is to use the event date to calculate a participants age rather than end of year date. Three stars.

Like the app, but cant figure out how to put specific runners into "My Favorites".

Looks like a good app, but I cannot seem to figure out how to add runners to the favorites tab? Anybody, please?

I agree with the above question. I cant figure it out either. Help?

1. How exactly do you follow runners? 2. How do you add runners to favorites? 3. How do you search more than one runner w/out it deleting the 1st?

I broke the favorites code! Highlight the runner in search results list, then click "done". A star will appear next to runners name. You can now view this participant via favorites button.

It says "map viewer" not specific if I will see my favs on the map. Also highlighted distance tabs when viewing my favs so what does that mean?

Mebrahtom Keflezighi is listed as "KEN". Makes me suspicious as to the accuracy of the rest of the info…

If all you want are the end results than this app is fine, but dont get if you hope to track in real time.

But it just doesnt work. So frustrating. I added two friends to "favorites" but dont see any data for them. Marathon started half hour ago, and friends have gone thru 5k mark, but I dont see this on the app. Must go back to tracking them the old fashion way, from home, on my laptop..tried tracking them via the Internet from my phone too, but the web site keeps freezing up..

Terrible interface for tracking specific runners. Adding runners to favorites is not quite working. Have to restart app in order to see the added runners.

Found all the runners I was looking for! Love the layout! Nice app thank you!

Waste of time for a spectator

I couldnt track the runners I know. Useless.

The updates are way behind, and the site has been crashed most of the day.

Awful, laggy, no help whatsoever. You had one job.. One day out of the year

The app is: hard to navigate, way behind other news feeds, and essentially useless.

Finding the person I wanted to track was really easy but I was super disappointed with the tracking. The navigation was confusing and the layout of the tracking was horrible. The official BAA website was better and this app was really disappointing!
