RunGo App Updates for iPhone X RunGo, a running app that offers turn-by-turn voice navigation, has released an update, which offers support for the new iPhone X. It also includes AR View, localization and a hospitality platform. Launched in 2014, the RunGo platform enables runners to create a route within the app or on the RunGo website, save it to their accounts, and use their smartphone to guide them. In 2016 RunGo added support for the Apple Watch so runners could receive guidance via their watch. The app's Augmented Reality (AR) feature mixes real- world images with artificial ones in real time. The result is an integrated AR View showing route directions on top of the "real world" around us. Nester Hosiery's New VP of Sales Performance sock maker Nester Hosiery announced it has hired Chris Nitzsche as Vice President of Sales. Nitzsche will be responsible for expanding sales of Nester Hosiery's Farm to Feet brand in the specialty channel and creating new opportunities for its private label business.

Prior to Quagga he had held National Sales Manager positions at Woolrich and Elan-Polo, where he was responsible for Woolrich footwear and private label footwear sales for the Outdoor segment. Before his 11-year tenure at Elan-Polo, Nitzsche worked at a number of top outdoor retailers including the Alpine Shop in St. Louis, MO, as a training manager, and Alder Creek Kayak and Canoe in Portland, OR, as an instructor and guide.
