Organiser's Description

DESCRIPTION



IF YOU ARE TAKING TIME TO STOP AT THIS RACE PAGE, FIRST I WANT TO SAY THANK YOU. THIS IS PART OF A VIRTUAL MILEAGE CHALLENGE SERIES THAT I DEVELOPED IN 2022 AFTER I WAS DX WITH MS THE FEB PRIOR TO HELP RAISE FUNDS FOR MY FIRST MARATHON AS A CHARITY RUNNER FOR THE MS SOCIETY. THERE ARE A TOTAL OF FOUR RACES IN THE MILEAGE CHALLENGE SERIES WITH THIS BEING THE FIRST.

OVER THE PAST THREE YEARS, I HAVE RAN TWO MARATHONS FOR THE MS SOCIETY AT THE PITTSBURGH MARATHON AND AM NOW TRAINING FOR THE PITTSBURGH HALF, AND WILL BE COMPETING IN THE FALMOUTH 7 MILE RACE IN MA THIS AUGUST ALL WHILE RAISING FUNDS FOR THE MS SOCIETY. ALL DONATIONS WILL GO DIRECTLY TOWARDS THE ASICS FALMOUTH RACE.



HOW IT WORKS..



PARTICIPANTS WILL TRACK THEIR MILEAGE BY MILE TYPE. THIS CAN INCLUDE WALK, RUN AND BIKE MILES. PARTICIPANTS MAY USE ANY TRACKING APP THAT THEY DESIRE, MILES MUST BE INTENTIONAL - STEPS DO NOT COUNT. THIS IS A SMALLER RUNNING CHALLENGE- SO WE TRUST AND HAVE ALWAYS USED THE HONOR SYSTEM.

After the mileage challenge starts you will be able to log your miles under the RESULTS section of the main race website. I also sent out an email with instructions when it starts and post in our online group, which is linked below.

The fourth and final challenge will also have a thank you raffle part of the challenge where all participants who donate will have a chance to win a $50.00 Amazon Gift Card !
