How the club works

Club rules

hybrid.club works because members back each other. Six rules keep it that way. They cover everything you post in the app: sessions, photos, comments and your profile.

  1. Be decent

    Back people up. Disagree with a training take if you like, but never go after the person. No harassment, bullying, hate or threats, and nothing sexual or graphic. If you wouldn't say it to someone on the start line, don't post it.

  2. No spam, no selling

    The club isn't a place to sell. No adverts, discount codes, affiliate links or links to things you're selling. Links in a new member's first few posts are held until an admin has had a look.

  3. Post your own training

    Only post training you did yourself. Don't post someone else's run, race or workout as yours, and post each session once: the app spots duplicates.

  4. Points are for real, tracked training

    Points reward training a device recorded: runs with GPS, from the app, your watch, Garmin or Apple Health, plus race results and club challenges. Sessions you type in yourself are welcome, but they earn far less.

    Every run is checked automatically. One that looks like a bike or car ride earns nothing, and one that looks off waits until an admin has checked it. Race results are checked against your race entry and the official results. Delete a post and its points go with it. Keep trying it on and every run you post gets checked by hand.

  5. Report it, block it

    See something that breaks these rules? Report it from the post, comment or profile. Only the admins see reports, and nobody is told who made one. Block someone and neither of you will see the other's posts, comments or reactions, or get notifications from each other. You can also hide a single post.

  6. When rules get broken

    The club has no tolerance for objectionable content or abusive members. Every report goes to the admins. They can remove a post or comment, warn you, suspend you for a set time, or remove you from the club, which takes your posts down too. While you're suspended you can still read the club, but you can't post, comment or react. If something of yours is removed, the app tells you why. Think we've got it wrong? Email hello@hybrid.club.
