GPS art in San Francisco

San Francisco's streets are already mapped in Mystery Run. Pick a distance anywhere in the city and the app fits a drawing to the streets around you, then talks you through every turn.

The card shows two routes Mystery Run made on San Francisco's street map for this page, starting in the Mission. Yours will start wherever you are, and you won't see the drawing until you finish.

How it works in San Francisco

  1. Pick a distance

    Anything from 2 to 18 miles. Start where you're standing, or search for a park, a café or a corner anywhere in San Francisco.

  2. Follow the turns

    The voice names every street before you reach it, so the phone stays in your pocket and your eyes stay on traffic.

  3. See what you drew

    Your last turn reveals the drawing. Connect Strava and it posts to your feed with the route and stats.

You'll see it when you've run it
