RUNNING VIRTUALLY
The Baltimore 10 Miler is scheduled to be a live race BUT we are happy to be able to also offer a virtual component as well. This is a great way to still get involved whether or not you’re able to make it to the live race. Virtual runners will get the same great swag that our live runners get.
Participating virutally offers several benefits, including: 1. Flexibility: You can run or walk anytime, anywhere, fitting your schedule perfectly. 2. Inclusivity and accessibility: Virtual races are ideal for all ages, abilities, and locations. 3. Community and motivation: Social media groups and virtual cheering squads provide community and motivation. 4. Health benefits: Getting out on the road is better than standing on the sideline! Your participation can promote weight loss, muscle development, cardiovascular fitness, and bone strengthening. 5. Charitable impact: Virtual participants are still supporting our charitable partners, allowing you to give back to your community while enjoying the sport you love
