Never entered a virtual run, but this one might be my first and hey you get a tech t-shirt and bling!!

Already doing 50+miles per month but would need to add some miles for the 100 in a month... just what I need!!

I have heard of a few virtual races ie 5k on a specific day for poppy run. There is the virtual Southsea marathon 26.2 miles in a month which they have put on because the real event was cancelled. It is a good fundraiser for charity and a motivational boost for runners mileage, winning situation! I am tempted!

Oh, I like the look of that. Motivation's not brilliant at present and virtual runs do help get you out the door. Only did about 40 miles in February and need to move it up so may try that - only the 50 but aim for more. 100 would be many steps too far.

That's quite a good deal, a t-shirt costs about that. April is the month I travel back to France, and I doubt I could get to 50 miles in 3 weeks, but if they do another one in the future please let me know Good luck xx

I'm still thinking about the 100... its a lot of miles each week, but perhaps the challenge I need!!

Yes, I would agree. It is a quest, not a set in stone must-achieve at at costs target though. You do your utmost 😀 It will focus your mind though, especially if bling is involved 🏅🏆🍰💪

I bit the bullet and signed up... I really need this as a challenge to build up my millage... hopefully the reward of some bling and a shirt will do the trick. :-)

You must be doing some millage now with all your marathon training???
