Voomaxer began with Jonathan. He started in cross country but moved down to the 800. It was in his final few months of college that Jonathan built Runlicious, Voomaxer's predecessor. He likes Go Lean Crunch cereal and running.

Sean helped found Fast Light Beautiful LLC in January, 2008 and helped transition Runlicious into Voomaxer. Living in San Francisco, he dreams of spending every day laying in the warm sun in Dolores Park, but can't seem to escape his home office or Voomaxer. He asks Jonathan to give him the problems that "can't" be fixed, because he probably created them. He enjoys Team Fortress 2, community, and cooperation.

Mission

To create a healthier, more social, more analytical environment for aerobic activities so people can maximize their health, fitness and performance.

Voomaxer? What does it mean?

The name Voomaxer is a reworking of the athletic performance measurement known as Vo2 max. Vo2 max is a measure of the maximum capacity of oxygen a human body can transport and utilize during exercise. It is a metric for the aerobic capacity of an human being and a benchmark for determining training intensity. We think that Voomaxer can help you increase your Vo2 max.

History

In July 2007, Voomaxer started out as a Facebook application called "Runlicious". The name was changed to Voomaxer to open up the application to more activities than just running. After all, even if running is your primary activity, there are countless other factors that can contribute to a PR performance.

Team

Voomaxer is owned and operated by Fast Light Beautiful which is a team of two guys looking to build cool and useful applications that improve peoples lives.
