# Introduction to Runner Runner is the easiest way to get paid for running on Base. Log your runs, compete with others, and earn $RUNNER tokens every week. ### How It Works Every week, the top 8 runners in our mini-app split the trading fees generated from the $RUNNER token. It doesn't matter if you're a casual jogger or a marathon runner - just log your kilometers and compete. The more you run, the better your chances of landing in the top 8 and earning your share of the rewards. ### What We've Distributed So Far Since launching in August 2025, we've distributed over 15,000 $RUNNER tokens to our community. You can see the full breakdown on our [Dune dashboard](https://dune.com/runnerbased/runner). --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
