The mission of World-Rank.in

Make people all over the world excited and healthy through world-wide friendly competition.

Even people who can not understand each other with language can enjoy doing sports together mutually.
It can be said that sports are the most excellent in the thing that human kind invented.

The distance and time have a common standard even if our language and cultures are different.
5km that started in Japan and 5km that started in Africa are the same distances.
The same lengths for 30 seconds of the United States and 30 seconds of India.

Countries all over the world compete in the Olympics by the same standard, so we can enjoy it together.

Global communication is done based on a common standard.
There is power to connect the world in sports.

And nowadays, we have another common standard of global communication.
It is the Internet.

We hope that global communications would be taken into daily life through sports and the Internet.

The Canadian , who was encouraged when he saw Australian ran 10km on the Internet , ran 20km.
They can send cheers and make friends each other through the Internet.
We hope that such things would occur often!
