THE CHALLENGE
In space, no one can hear you scream.
We’re back again with another edition of GRIT, and this time we’re getting galactic as we send our running goals through the stratosphere with Winter GRIT: Space Odyssey.
It’s all systems as you travel beyond the final frontiers of your running goals in an effort to become an interplanetary icon.
Set a distance goal for the month of January and moonwalk your way across space. With five distance missions ranging from the Moon to the Milky Way, you’re sure to find a mileage goal that deprives you of oxygen. If you’re feeling good and your fuel levels are sound, go even further.
It will be cold, it will be lonely, but you will challenge the very existence of what it means to be human.
As you complete each mission, collect a badge to celebrate your achievement.
Oh, and did we mention that the swag is the best yet? For signing on to this historic mission, you’ll receive a custom, full-zip ASICS jacket ($100 value), event sticker, and more. Plus, every astronaut will be entered to win weekly shoe giveaways and incredible prize packs from Asics and Running Warehouse.
This time around, we’re still honoring the space cadets who travel farther into space and climb the highest mountains on Mars: two grand prizes (male and female) to the top elevation gainers for the month, and two grand prizes (male and female) to those with the most mileage for the month.
Run long and prosper.
HOW IT WORKS
Choose a distance goal. Run those miles anytime between January 1 and January 31. Run more if you’re feeling good. Log your miles and land on the leaderboard. Get digital badges and a sense of incredible accomplishment. Be part of a community that stays together and celebrates our wins through the coldest month of the year in the Northern Hemisphere.
