Perstari
To stand firm, and keep going
Perstari comes from the Latin perstare: per, all the way through, and stare, to stand. It means to hold out and keep going to the end, which is what endurance sport asks of you. Not one heroic session, but months of showing up while the rest of your life carries on around it.
Say it per-STAR-ee. There is a star in the middle of it, for the goal at the top.
Drawn from Table Mountain's real contours
The logo uses elevation data for Table Mountain, turned so the word lies along the front table. Lines close in on the word so it reads as the summit the mountain builds up to. It is a Cape Town mark for a product built on the roads, trails and water around it.
What we hold to
Real numbers
Every split, pace and heart rate comes from what you recorded, never a guess.
You own your data
You choose who sees what, and you can take it all or delete it all.
Safety before growth
Group sessions follow strict rules, even when looser ones would grow faster.
Plain words
No jargon, no hype. If a screen needs a manual, the screen is wrong.
Who builds it
My name is Henry. I started Perstari so people can connect through sport, and to move away from the Instagram-style home page most sports apps follow. Get out there, join events, and get fit and happy while you do it.
Henry, founder. Cape Town.
