What Size Should Your Running Poster Be?
The right poster size depends on the wall and on the route. A simple 10K can look lost in a huge frame, and a heat-map of every run you have logged needs room to breathe. Here is how to choose.
The sizes at a glance
| Size | US and Canada | Best for | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| 30 × 40 cm | 12 × 18 in | A desk, a shelf or a gallery wall | $32 · UK £24.99 |
| 40 × 60 cm | 18 × 24 in | Reads clearly from across a room | $42 · UK £32.99 |
| 50 × 70 cm | 24 × 36 in | A statement piece that owns the wall | $49 · UK £39.99 |
| 50 × 70 cm framed | 24 × 36 in framed | Ready to hang, in a black frame | $139 (US/CA $209) · UK £99.99 |
All prints are matte, and shipping to the US, Canada, the UK, Australia and most of Europe is included in the price.
Small: 30 × 40 cm
Good for one route with a clean line, and for tight spaces. It also works as part of a group: three small posters of three races make a tidy gallery wall.
Large: 40 × 60 cm
This is the classic choice, and our most popular. It is large enough that the title and stats read easily from a few steps away, and it suits almost any wall in a home.
XL: 50 × 70 cm
Choose this for long routes and for heat-maps. At this size, individual streets stay legible even with hundreds of runs layered together. It is the one to pick for above a sofa or a bed.
How to choose in one minute
- Measure the wall. Tape a sheet of paper at the size you are considering, and look at it from across the room.
- Think about the route. One short run suits a smaller print. A city heat-map rewards the bigger sizes.
- Think about the frame. The XL comes framed, or you can frame any print yourself.
