I’ve got ReRun added to Routes now. You have to use the Go button to get to its page, then there will be a new button with a ‘play’ icon that’ll slide a marker along the route.

That said… I’d like look into some kind of ‘scrubber’ interface.  
I’m thinking something along the lines of [Chris’ gradient/scrubbing demo](https://dev.to/mapbox/mapbox-demo-bike-route-visualization-color-gradient-and-data-scrubbing-ux-9kb#the-solution), but it would need a secondary UI. You can’t be expected to drag/scrub over a route when you’re unsure where it goes. There needs to be another left → right visualization of the route (like an [elevation display](https://community.citystrides.com/t/add-elevation-to-route-builder/22671) that’s previously been requested) that you’d be able to drag/scrub over to have the marker animated.
