Description
Challenge yourself or create a team with your family and friends to accomplish virtually running the distance across North Carolina. Select the 130 mile challenge to complete the distance from Charlotte to Raleigh, the 253 mile challenge to complete the distance from Winston-Salem to the Atlantic, or the 343 mile challenge to complete the distance from the Blue Ridge Mountains to Nags Head.
Here's how it works:
1. Get registered! Fly solo or 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. Your challenge begins on 6/12. After 6/12, each of team member runs where they want and when they want to accomplish the distance. (Ex: Jill runs 120 miles, Jack runs 40 miles (slacker), and Bill runs 93 miles to complete the 253 mile challenge from Winston-Salem to the Atlantic).
3. Once your team has completed the 130, 253, or 343 mile challenge, submit your results to get your finisher certificate and you'll have earned bragging rights to say you and your team accomplished the #GreatRunAcrossNorthCarolina.
