As we all know 2020 has been the most challenging year of our entire life.

None of us could anticipate that a virus will take our normal lives away and will keep us confined to our home for months which was indeed stressful and energy annihilating. But the situation turned out to be a blessing in disguise, as it has shed light over many areas of life which were unexplored and beyond our imagination which includes running sports events globally. Our athletes have also turned this problem into an opportunity by opening arms for virtual races. “As the events have turned virtual, athletes have come local”

“A Virtual Race is a race where an individual can run anywhere they want, at their own pace, on a treadmill or outdoors, alone or in a group. There is no set pattern. Once can also select from a range of virtual race themes and distances”
