50 State 50 Mile Challenge - Virtual Style!
What is a Virtual Challenge - You Ask?
Virtual events happen on your own schedule. If you decide to sign up for our virtual challenge, you simply record your time as you run or walk in your neighborhood, on a treadmill, or in a park any time during our challenge period, February 1st - July 4th. You have the entire 5 month period to add to your mileage or you can complete it in one day. It is completely up to you.
Who Can Participate in a Virtual Challenge?
Anyone! One of the great things about virtual challenges is that they allow for participation from different parts of the country and anywhere in the world. All levels of runners and walkers are encouraged to sign up.
This event is limited to 100 participants.

Virtual Challenge Information
We are doing a Virtual Run with a twist! If this is your first Virtual Challenge, it is simple - all you need to do is run or walk anywhere in the world that you are. It could be around your neighborhood, on the treadmill, or even at another race/event you are already participating in. You must have the RunKeeper app downloaded before starting your virtual distance.
But what is the twist? You will have 5 months to complete your challenge (February 1st - July 4th). Only those participants who complete the challenge will receive an event medal. Once you complete your challenge we will mail out your medal.
That's it. Simple!! If you have any questions about the process please email us at info@startlineracing.com.
