WHAT IS A VIRTUAL RACE?
A Virtual Race is a race that you run at any time and any place that fits into your schedule. The race can be be completed indoors or outdoors, in a park, on a track or trail, around your neighborhood or around your yard, even on your treadmill. Simply decide upon the distance of race you will participating in, use a device or app to keep track of your distance and time, then enter your finish time and any pictures you may have of yourself, friends and family either running or at your homemade finish line! The results will be posted here on Its Your Race. (See below)
