COVID-19 may have drastically altered our normal lifestyles, but that doesn’t mean that we have to let the fear, anxiety, and uncertainty get the best of us. Just because we are physically apart doesn’t mean that we need to be isolated or disconnected💞

Introducing…

RUN FOR ‘RONA : A fully VIRTUAL RACE where you can run (or walk) from ANYWHERE, ANYTIME. As an online community, what better way to support one another, show SOLIDARITY, and remain healthy & active than through a mutual, meaningful marathon?? 100% of race proceeds will go towards organizations supporting coronavirus relief efforts!

ABOUT: As an online community, we can choose to unite and motivate one another virtually from the safety of our screens. Being at home now doesn’t seem so bad!

Therefore, the Run For ‘Rona virtual race can be run (or walked) at any location, pace and time—from ANYWHERE AROUND THE WORLD! Whether it be via your neighborhood park, your favorite running trail, or simply the treadmill in your home, we would love to have you join our race to demonstrate your unwavering love and support for those affected by COVID-19.
