QUESTIONS?
Do I need to be able to run the Full CHALLENGE Distance?
You do not need to finish a challenge to enjoy pushing yourself and feeling great about being motivated to do so. In fact a most all runners do not finish our distance challenges, they just enjoy trying to reach as many checkpoints as possible.
should I run this challenge as 5 single marathon distance runs?
Not at all, and we don't recommened that you try to either. You'll enjoy this challenge far more by completing shorter distance runs spread over the week and the month, with ample recovery time between runs.
When and where should I run?
You can run anywhere you want to in the world! We suggest you pick a route that is safe and away from traffic. Entries need to be submitted before 10pm GMT on the last day of the month to be listed on the leaderboard.
I don't see my result?
If you've tried to submit your run by saving and syncing on your garmin, and it doesn't appear on our leaderboard within a couple of hours, there may be a problem with the way your run was recorded. For example, pausing your watch during your run can cause issues. We suggest that if you don't see your run on the leaderboard 2 hours after syncing, you submit manually via evidencing your run in our facebook VRun Challenge Group. Please remember to include height gain, distance and time recorded for any screenshots.
Can I enter more than once?
Yes, for single run challenges you can enter as many times as you like. For total miles/calories/climbs in a month challenges, there is no need to re-enter, as your result will not be dependent on one individual run.
Where are results published?
Results are published on this page, once the challenge begins.
Can I OPT OUT after REGISTERING?
Yes, just disconnect your Garmin watch any time you want to. Just go into your Garmin App Settings, and Navigate to Connected devices. Then select the VRun App and disable both switches to fully disconnect.
Will A CHALLENGE mess up my training plan?
Not at all, many runners use our challenges as motivation to work through their training plans. You can submit any run towards your challenge, even races that you're competing in, so there's no need to change your routine or plan to participate.
