Make Moves May - Virtual Marathon Challenge

Run, Walk, Hike, Cycle, Swim, Row... or all of the above -- you choose!

Virtual Marathon Challenge: Complete a virtual marathon (26.2 miles / 42.2 kilometers) over the course of 31 days for the beneficiary of your choice

How does it work?

1. Register for the Make Moves May Challenge and pledge to move 26.2 miles / 42.2 kilometers over the month of May (broken up however you choose)

2. Donate: This challenge is a fundraiser for cancer care and research organizations around the world.

• For those in the U.S., during your registration, select a beneficiary of your choice. You can choose to donate any amount. It might be fun to pledge $26.20 - one dollar for every mile!
• For those outside the U.S., we have three global cancer organizations included. If you would prefer to donate to a local cancer organization directly, please do! -- just skip the donation field during registration.

• In light of the troubling Covid situation in India, a respected pandemic relief organization operating in India is included as a beneficiary if you would like to support that effort.

3. Share your progress on social using #WeAreVMLYR or on our Strava page (https://www.strava.com/clubs/vmlyrfoundation) so others can follow and cheer you on -- you do NOT have to complete the virtual marathon challenge in one day, and can spread it out however you choose! Strava is a free platform integrating activity tracking and social connection.

Organized by the VMLY&R Foundation, open to the global VMLY&R network
