Organiser's Description

Not only that but we have teamed up with My Virtual Mission to provide a choice of TWO live virtual scenic routes to choose from.
The UK route, which takes you from the start at the Olympic Park through the Chiltern Hills, Covent Garden, Chinatown, Big Ben, the O2, London Bridge, Wembley, Richmond Park, Bushy Park, Box Hill, the South Downs, up to the Cotswolds before finishing at the Brecon Beacons.
OR you can complete the actual path of the real life lightning bolt, as it was recorded, across southern Brazil.

Log your activities on your Apple watch, Strava, Fitbit, Nike Run Club or manually. You can easily return to the app to log your activities, upload the proof and rack up your distance towards the 700 kilometre goal.

View weekly, monthly and all time leaderboards. Compare your progress against your team, those you follow or everyone. Filter the leaderboard to compare your progress against other runners, cyclists, walkers or whatever type of exercise that you do.
