2025/1000 Mile Challenge!
Achieve your fitness goals in 2025! Challenge yourself this year by totaling either 1000 or 2025 miles over the year! Everyone who logs 1000+ or 2025+ miles of running or walking activities between January 1 and December 31 will receive a long-sleeve shirt commemorating their achievement!
Register for free once and submit your mileage throughout the year. Mileage from your step tracker as part of your daily routine does not count! These miles should be supplemental activities to your daily routine! Also, this is on the honor system so PLEASE BE HONEST.
Shirts must be picked up at RunAbout Sports in Blacksburg. We cannot mail shirts to participants. Participants who completed the 2025/1000 mile challenge will be notified to pick up their shirt a few weeks after the challenge ends. Participants who complete the 2025 mile challenge only receive the 2025 shirt, not both.
How do I submit mileage?
There are multiple ways to submit mileage for the challenge! If you were logged into your RunSignup account when you signed in, follow the first set of instructions. If you did not use an account at the time of registration, follow the second set of instructions.
