Description
Brought to you by Sun Multisport Events producers of the Barn to Run Trail Race Series, the Barn to Run Winter Challenge is a virtual event that invites you to start 2025 with a 5k or 10k run, walk or hike on January 1st... OR, for a goal that motivates you through the month, the option to run, walk or hike (or bike!) 26.2, 50, 100 or 250 miles between January 1st and January 31st. Sign up for the month-long challenge and you'll be able to log your activity on the Results page throughout the month as you move closer and closer to achieving your distance goal.
Because this is a virtual event, HOW you do it (run, walk, hike or bike), WHERE you do it (on the road, the trails, a treadmill) and WHEN you do it (within the designated period) is all up to you! No matter what event you choose, the price is the same... and so is the swag! All participants receive a pair of 7" TurboWool socks PLUS they get to choose bonus swag from 4 different options AND the first 50 that register also receive a HydraPak SpeedCup. Details below.
Your Swag
All registrants receive a pair of stylish Barn to Run socks made in the USA by Sock Guy. These socks are made of TURBOwool, a superior blend of 50% Polypropylene and 50% Merino Wool, which provides five times the strength and durability of Merino wool alone making them perfect for cold weather trail running, hiking or riding! Additional features include:
- Mesh upper on the foot and cuff for maximum airflow ventilation
- Snug arch support hugs foot for maximum comfort and virtually zero-slip
- Honeycomb padded foot bottom and cuff
- Seamless toe
PLUS...you get to choose BONUS SWAG from a set of four options. Inventory on the bonus swag is limited so register early to get your preferred bonus swag. You can choose from a (1) Barn to Run knit beanie; (2) Barn to Run hydration belt and arm warmers; (3) a pair of TurboWool socks with the beloved Barn to Run running chicken; or (4) a 2nd pair of TurboWool socks featuring the Barn to Run barn.
AND, the first 50 that register receive a HydraPak SpeedCup... a lightweight, easy to hold, reusable and collapsible cup that's easy to tuck in a pocket when running or riding.
Uploading and Tracking Your Results
Upload your time (optional) and distance to the Results page of the Barn to Run Winter Challenge page on RunSignUp here. After registering, select the event you’re signed up for, search on your name, log in and then post your activity. The results submissions period begins on January 1st so you will not be able to complete this process prior to then. Curious about last year's results? Click the results tab to see them.
If you’re doing the 5k or 10k on January 1st upload your results when you are done (technically, you have until January 31st to add them, but why wait?). If you’re participating in the 26.2, 50, 100 or 250 mile challenge, you should add your run, walk or hike distance and time after each session and the RunSignUp system will keep track of your progress.
