If there's any downside to traveling during vacations, it's that it can be all too easy to abandon one's diet and workout regimens, but the RunGo app is a way to continue experiencing cities while getting in a jog at the same time.

The RunGo app is a hybrid travel and [run-tracking system](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/negative-split) that offers [turn-by-turn voice navigation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/catalogue-of-audio-guides) across preset routes. When using the app, [fitness-savvy travelers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aipowered-fitness-solution) simply pick one of the thousands that are available through the RunGo app and on the site. They can then plug in their headphones and start running, ensuring that they won't get lost in a new city while also seeing some of the great things that that city has to offer. The app even tells users to look left or right to catch landmarks.

The routes in RunGo are submitted by locals, so travelers can be sure that they're moving through an authentic tour of whichever city they're in.
