LegalPace is a community app that connects lawyers who run. Attorneys often keep odd hours and crave both fitness and connections that understand their world - LegalPace brings the two together. Members create a runner profile with their preferred distances, terrain, geography, and running "vibe" (talk shop, just run, or both), then discover nearby lawyer-runners through smart filters. Send a connection request, get matched, and find your next training partner, mentor, or accountability buddy - someone who gets the 6 a.m. long run before a 9 a.m. deposition.
Under the hood, LegalPace is a cross-platform mobile app built with Expo and React Native, backed by an Express API and a PostgreSQL database (Drizzle ORM), with secure sign-in powered by Clerk. The contract-first architecture generates type-safe API clients from an OpenAPI spec, keeping the app and server perfectly in sync. The result is a fast, polished networking experience purpose-built for the legal community - where the bar meets the pavement.
