Planning a marathon abroad means race dates, entry windows and fees on different sites, often not in your language. PacerTrip puts it in one app: 3,000+ races in 142 countries with entry dates and fees in your currency, a reminder the day before entry opens (big races can sell out on day one), stays sorted by distance to the start, an AI race-week itinerary, and a runner community for every race, auto-translated into your language. Free on iOS, Android and the web, in 44 languages.

Could you build this?
Partial The booking and reminder UI is easy to vibe-code, but the core asset is a curated database of 3,000+ races across 142 countries with entry windows and fees, which requires ongoing data collection.
What it would actually take: Build a race database with scrapers, manual curation, and crowdsourced updates, then serve it through a web or mobile app with currency conversion, notifications (push or email), and travel-booking affiliate links. The hard part is keeping entry dates and fees accurate across many non-English race sites, which requires data operations and sustained curation rather than code alone.
