About the event
Here's how it works:
- Pick a team: North, South, East, West or The Nomads and register yourself (and your friends/clubmates)
- The distance around the world is 40,075km. Your virtual team will cover as much of this distance as possible in one month
- Your contribution is as much or as little as you can muster – this run is available to everyone, regardless of pace or fitness
- Your Run Things account can be linked to Strava. If you don't have Strava, you can manually upload your activities.
- Throughout the month, you’ll be able to see how far you and your teammates have run.
- Kids entries available, too - they won't need an account area and we don't track their distances. They'll get a medal sent, just so long as you keep them active.
