Frequently Asked Questions
A virtual run lets you participate in a race on your own schedule, from anywhere you choose. Instead of showing up on race day, you run or walk the distance at a time and place that works best for you. On a trail, treadmill, neighborhood route, or park. You record your time in your preferred time app or watch and upload your results online.
Once you register, you have up to 2 weeks after the in-person race to upload your timing results and distance online. (No need to email us photos of your results as proof)
To upload results go to event page, MENU> RESULTS> SUBMIT VIRTUAL RESULTS.
Your themed T-shirt and finisher medal will be mailed out the week following the in-person race. You will provide your mailing address when registering.
Volunteers arrive at the event 1.5 hours before start time and check in at the registration tent.
