FAQ's
How does a virtual race work?
​
A virtual race is very similar to a live race. You register, you run/walk (on the honor system) in support of a good cause; but they differ from live events because you get to complete your run from anywhere you like… the neighborhood, a local park, treadmill, track, downtown or country roads. You get to decide!
