The human pacing aggregator
Find your pacer.
Cadence is the online aggregator for human pacing. Individuals, teams and clubs, and race organizers post what they need; pacers browse the board and apply.
Why Cadence exists
Pacing asks are everywhere. The market should be in one place.
A runner chasing a Boston qualifier, a mile PR, or a controlled long run needs more than a pace chart. They need another person who can run the plan, stay calm, and show up.
Today that match is usually hidden in club emails, Facebook groups, coach networks, Instagram stories, timing-company contacts, and who happens to know whom. Cadence makes the asks visible, searchable, and actionable.
How it works
Turn a goal into a pacing commitment.
Review the match
Pacers apply, or athletes request a listed pacer. Both sides see the proposed amount before accepting.
Book through Cadence
Accept the fit and pay securely. Cadence keeps 15%; Stripe sends the other 85% to the pacer.
