Challenge Distances

Run our unique challenge distances as part of your virtual race! Due to the nature of the virtual race platform we are unable to host the 5K+10K and 5K+21.1K challenges as normal. We have maintained the total distance as a single race option, and increased the merchandise for those who want to go further!

Please note that challenge distances will only receive the one coin specific to that distance.
