Description
Challenge yourself or create a team with your family and friends to accomplish virtually running the distance across Ohio. Select the 227 mile challenge to complete the distance east to west or the 454 mile challenge to run back again west-to-east.
Here's how it works:
1. Choose your teammates and come up with a fun team name. The first person to register creates the team. After the team has been created, each team member can join the team during their individual registration process.
2. Once all team members are registered, each of team member runs where they want and when they want to accomplish the distance. (Ex: Jill runs 120 miles, Jack runs 30 miles (slacker), and Bill runs 77 miles to complete the 227 mile east-to-west challenge).
3. Once your team has completed the 227 or 454 mile challenge in 30 days, submit your results to get your finisher certificate and you'll have earned bragging rights to say you and your team accomplished the #GreatRunAcrossOhio.
4. Once you have registered, your shirt will be shipped to you right away. Once you complete the challenge, your medal will be shipped to you.
