What is a Virtual Race?

Virtual races have gained in popularity in the past couple of years and have become a great alternative to racing in-person during this COVID-19 pandemic.  In a virtual race, you register for the race and then run at your convenience on the course of your choice.  You can then submit your run-time to us and we will post on our social media sites and web site.  We will send all registered runners a microfiber race towel and a race medal.

Advantages of Virtual Races:

  • weather issues?  what weather issues – no need to worry about weather conditions.  Runners run at the date of their choosing as long as it is before November 14th.
  • Route – you can choose your own route.  You may prefer treadmill running (no judgement here!) or trail running.  With virtual runs, you can to pick the course.
  • Schedule – although we would have preferred to see everyone in person, sometimes runners are unavailable to run at a specific date or time.  Virtual races enable runners to participate at a time that is convenient for their schedule.
  • No pressure!!! –   Some thrive under the pressure of running in a pack of other runners, some are a little more shy and would prefer to run solo or with a known running partner.  With a virtual race, you run with your peeps!
  • Health and Safety! –   While we always want our runners to be safe, 2020 has brought about a new level of necessary health precautions.  Our trail is a wonderful, shaded trail but not conducive to 50-100 runners participating at one time during a pandemic. 

Special thanks to our Sponsors!
