Organiser's Description
The longest day of the year is almost here.
On June 21st, Team VPA is launching its first community-wide virtual endurance challenge and we want you in it.
Solstice to Equinox. 94 days. Every mile counts.
THE TEAM VPA SUMMER SOLSTICE CHALLENGE
From the Summer Solstice to the first day of fall, you'll run, ride, and swim your way through summer alongside a global community of vegan powered athletes who show up every single day.
This isn't just a challenge. It's a reason to make this your best summer of training yet.
HOW IT WORKS
Log miles across any endurance discipline throughout the summer. Every effort counts toward your individual goal. Choose your tier, log your miles, and track your progress on the leaderboard from solstice to equinox.

Running 1 mile = 1 mile
Cycling 3 miles = 1 mile
Swimming 0.25 miles = 1 mile
CHOOSE YOUR PERSONAL GOAL
Finisher 100 miles (~1 mile/day)
A goal for every athlete, regardless of where you are in your season.
Thriver 250 miles (~2.7 miles/day)
For the athlete who shows up consistently and puts in the work.
star Elite 500 miles (~5.3 miles/day)
For the athlete who needs something to chase all summer.
RACING FOR A CAUSE
100% of registration proceeds go directly to animal welfare. Because vegan athletes know that how we fuel matters beyond performance.
