About RaceTime

Built by a timer. Proven on the biggest race weekends.

RaceTime started in the timing tent: 15+ years of marathons, triathlons and championship events, turned into the platform its founder always wanted on race day. In its first season it carried the Warsaw Marathon and the Garmin Gdańsk Half Marathon - on the same weekend.

Founder & Creator

Lukasz Kuczmarski

I've spent more than 15 years inside the sports timing industry - working with leading European timing companies as Head of Timing on hundreds of events, from local 5Ks to mass-participation marathons with tens of thousands of finishers, and championship-level races at European and World level across multiple disciplines.

Over those years I've built and shipped enterprise software for the sports industry, and I know the field from the inside - not just as a technical project manager, but as the person standing in a wet timing tent at 6am trying to recover from a hardware failure. In parallel, I'm currently managing an enterprise-grade event registration platform for one of the world's most recognised action-sports brands - owning the roadmap, dev team, infrastructure, and a multi-market payments system.

RaceTime is the culmination of that career. It's the system I wanted on every race day - and the one I'd happily use myself, on my own events, without compromise.

The first season

From city runs to 50,000 participants in one weekend.

In 2026, timing companies ran their events on RaceTime - from local 5Ks to big-city marathons.

Why RaceTime exists

Timing software feels different when it's designed from inside the timing tent.

The hardest moments in timing aren't the calm ones at the office. They're the moments where a chip wasn't read, an antenna dropped offline, and the announcer is asking for the top 3 in 90 seconds. Every decision in RaceTime is shaped by those moments - by someone who has actually lived them.

Real-time by default

Live results, live tracking, live announcer - all driven by the same event bus. No "publish to web" button. No delay.

Proven on race day

40+ events and 50,000 participants in a single weekend, and race-day runbooks for when hardware misbehaves.

Built around timer workflows

Course setup as a timeline. Hardware priority and timing rules you can actually read. Reports built in a guided wizard, not buried in menus.

Mobile-first for spectators

Most race-day traffic is on a phone. Results, favourites and the 3D live map are designed for that audience first.

Hardware-agnostic

RaceResult, ChronoTrack, and MyLaps supported today - with a clean abstraction layer ready for whichever vendor you need next.

Built with timers, not at them

The free trial isn't a marketing gimmick - it's an open invitation to run a real event on RaceTime and help shape where it goes next.

Operating principles

How we think about your race day.

  1. Race day comes first.

    Changes are planned around the race calendar and tested on real race data. If anything slows down, spectators keep seeing the latest complete results.

  2. Show your work.

    Every calculated time is auditable. You can trace exactly how a result was produced and why - full transparency over the math.

  3. Defaults that ship races, options that win them.

    A simple event takes minutes to configure. A complex multi-stage relay with custom rankings is still possible - without code.

  4. Speed is a feature.

    Operators waiting on a calculation is a bug. Spectators waiting on a refresh is a bug. We measure both and we keep them low.

  5. Your data is yours.

    Export, integrate, archive - no lock-in. Each timing company's data stays separate, and the server enforces it.
