Uploading Your Results- Best Practices

Entering your results into the Run Signup dashboard is a very user friendly process.  The easiest way is to manually enter your run time, distance, and vert in the Run Signup results portal.  You should also be able to upload a .tcx file into the dashboard as well, however different platforms will read the file differently which may cause you to lose vert.  To ensure fairness and fun-ness please do your best to follow the best practices listed below.

Please enter your activities frequently.  In order to get the most out of this experience, and to see your spot on the race leaderboard, we encourage you to enter your results every day. 

Keep evidence of your activity.  If you want to be considered for any awards during this event, you must have proof of your activity.  This can be as simple as sharing your Strava activity links for your runs, or taking a photo of your treadmill screen if you are running indoors. We will reach out to you if we need to see evidence of your activity.  Otherwise- we are operating on an honors system-- so be honest :).

ALL RESULTS MUST BE SUBMITTED BY 11:59p Arizona Time on December 25th.  Please get your results submitted early.  If you are having any tech issues at any point during the event please reach out.  If you don't have your results submitted into the Run Signup Portal by 11:59 p.m. on December 25th, those results will not count. No exceptions. Although our Worldwide community does extraordinary things, the one thing we cannot do is fly around the Earth really fast in reverse like Superman to turn back time.
