Sport story ideas for gym and running

Sport stories are about progress: a new personal record, a finished race, a workout you didn’t skip. This category has two sides – bold gym and fitness frames for one strong photo, and running layouts with space for your bib, distance and splits.

  • Gym and fitness. Neon Fitness, Neon Workout, Power Frame, Red Splash, Never Give Up and No Limits each frame one photo with bold, high-energy graphics – a mirror selfie, a heavy lift, the end of a class. Adrenaline Zone fits four photos from an adventure weekend – rafting, paragliding, ATV or a zipline.
  • Race day. Race Bib Day (2 photos) is made for a half marathon or any race – the bib, the medal, the finish. My Run Diary turns three photos into a running journal page.
  • Run stats. Run Stats Card (1 photo) and New PR Splits (1 photo) are made for numbers – distance, time, pace, kilometre splits. Run Terminal (2 photos) shows your run like a screen of data.
  • The weekly long run. Sunday Run Strip lines up four photos like a film strip – the run club, the route, the coffee after.

How to make a sport story

  1. Pick 1–4 photos in Allapulla.
  2. Open Sport; only templates for that photo count are shown.
  3. Choose one – the photos drop into the frames automatically. Move or zoom to keep your face or the bib in view.
  4. Type your own stats or line, then share to Instagram Stories or WhatsApp, or save it.

What to post

  • New PR: the time, the distance and “new PR” – New PR Splits has room for the splits.
  • Race: bib, finish line, medal; write the race name and your time.
  • Gym: “leg day”, the weight you lifted, or your streak (“day 30”).
  • Weekly: the Sunday long run with the route, the view and the distance.

Tips

  • Shoot in good light; neon frames look best with a clear, bright photo.
  • Keep numbers in the middle of the story – Instagram covers the top and bottom. See the story size guide.
  • Collect your runs or workouts in a highlight with matching highlight covers.

Frequently asked questions

How do I share my run on an Instagram story?

Pick a photo from the run, open a running template such as Run Stats Card or New PR Splits in Allapulla, and type your distance, time and pace into the template text. Then share the 1080×1920 story straight to Instagram Stories.

What should I post after a race?

The race bib, a finish-line photo and your time. Race Bib Day holds two photos – say the bib and the medal – and My Run Diary or Sunday Run Strip fit 3–4 photos from the course.

What do I write on a gym story?

Keep it short – the workout (“leg day”, “push day”), a number you are proud of, or a short line like “no limits”. A strong mirror or action shot with one line is better than a long caption.

Do the running templates connect to my fitness app?

No. You type your own stats – distance, time, pace, splits – as text, so it works with any watch or app.
