A marathon is half a year of work in a single morning
Running a marathon takes months. A sixteen to twenty week plan, long runs in the dark, eating and sleeping adjusted around it. The race itself lasts a few hours, and afterwards there is a medal and a result online.
A course on paper fills that gap. Big city marathons have a route locals place immediately: the bridge, the waterfront, the last kilometre through the park. Add the date and the finish time and it stops being a street map — it becomes precisely that morning.
You use the GPX file of your own activity or the official course from the organiser. Title and subtitle are yours to fill in — your name, the race, your time. Distance, duration and elevation are read out and you decide which are visible. What you get is a print-ready PDF to print yourself.
The source file, not one print
Not a single print, but the high-quality PDF file itself — for yourself or as a gift after a first marathon.

How to export your ride
Your poster starts with a GPX — the file that holds your route. Grab it from Strava or Garmin in half a minute.
-

Open your activity on Strava
Go to strava.com (easiest on a computer) and open the activity you want on the poster.

Open the top-right menu

Frequently asked questions
-
Can I make a poster of my marathon?
Yes. Upload the GPX file of your race, pick a style and download the print-ready PDF.
-
Is my finish time shown?
You choose which stats to show, such as time, distance and pace.
-
Does it work with Strava and Garmin?
Yes. Export your activity as a GPX from Strava or Garmin Connect and upload it here.
-
Can I use the official course instead of my own track?
Yes. Many organisers publish the course as a GPX. That gives a perfect line, while your own track shows exactly which route you ran.
-
Does it work for a half marathon or an ultra?
Yes, any distance works. Distance and elevation come from the file, so the poster adapts to the course.
-
Can I combine several marathons on one poster?
You can by merging the files, but usually one marathon per poster works better — that keeps the course recognisable.
