RUN to Change Lives Across America

Starts July 1st and Ends July 31st or When We Finish TOGETHER Your favorite trails in Any City - Any State - Any Country, CO 80108 US

Description

Welcome RUN to Change Lives nation! It's time to lace up together like never before as one massive team for the most EPIC virtual road trip across America. This route was designed to visit a total of 50 landmarks across the continental US in the fastest route possible at 14,278 miles. No one gets left behind as we move together virtually as one pin across the map.

THE WHY - LET'S BRING AMERICA TOGETHER

It's all about the journey as we pick up runners/walkers/swimmers/cyclists in all 50 states during the road trip by tagging our friends and local businesses from each city, route, and landmark. Let's Bring America Together by IGNITING a community of athletes of all abilities to join us and maximize our give back to our charitable partner Feeding America, the nation’s largest domestic hunger-relief non-profit organization!

Are you up for the challenge and ready to help us make headlines along the way?

THE PERFECT ROAD TRIP!

A researcher mapped out the fastest route to drive across the country, hitting all major 50 landmarks before coming full circle. It would take about nine days of driving, or 224 total hours, to complete the 14,278-mile journey! Ambitious travelers waste no time seeing the sights -- which include the Grand Canyon in Arizona, Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming, the White House and the Statue of Liberty. 

Tag friends and local businesses on social media from across the country to join us in this massive 14,278 mile virtual road trip. Share special memories you have as we pass each city, state, and landmark.
