FAQs - VIRTUAL RACE FAQs
WHEN should I run this?
This event is for December 28, 29 and 30, 2020. However, we have allowed for a day before and after the official challenge dates as well. You may only report runs done on 3 days during the challenge. If your schedule allows for 27, 28 and 31, then use those three dates. You may log as many separate runs (or walks or jogs) as you wish during each of the three days.
WHERE should I run this?
That is 100% your choice. The safest place to run at this time is a treadmill. If you choose to run outdoors, please take every precaution ordered in your area. In most of Colorado, that means staying NEAR your HOME. Don’t drive to a trailhead or a park. Stay within YOUR neighborhood. Yeah, that might mean making 10 trips up and down your block!
HOW should I run this?
Run any way that works for you! Please, follow social distancing precautions. If you’re outdoors, wear a mask, stay away from other people, don’t touch anything, don’t drive to a trailhead or park, stay near your home/neighborhood. Use your treadmill if that is an option for you!
How do I report my TIME?
On the morning of December 27, 2020, the virtual results submission link will be active. You’ll be able to submit YOUR time through that link until the end of the month. You'll receive an email on RACE DAY (Dec 28) with the reminder and link to begin submitting your distances/times as well.
Are TIMES verified?
No. For the virtual event, times reported are on the ‘honor system’. We do have this event listed in STRAVA and encourage athletes to use the STRAVA app to record their runs there as well. Additionally, we are working on enabling RaceJoy to track and log your run distance time. Our hope is that this feature is up and running by Dec 28.
WILL RESULTS be posted?
You bet! Starting the afternoon of Dec 27, preliminary results will be on the RESULTS page of the website.
Will participants be rewarded based on PERFORMANCE?
No, because participants are running in different locations, times, etc. we will not award anything based on performance. See next question regarding prizes!
Will there be any PRIZES?
YES – EVERYONE who registers for this event will be placed in a drawing for a $25 gift card from a local business. Winners will be announced on 12-31-20. One winner will be drawn for every five registrations! You have a 1 in 5 chance of winning $25. For every 100 registrants, we'll draw one winner for a $100 gift card as well! Winners will be contacted by email and announced on this website.
