As a virtual race, you select your preferred race route and results are self-timed. For runner safety, all participants are encouraged to adhere to social distancing guidelines and be cautious of traffic and other items/obstacles that may pose a hazard along the chosen race route. Runners may also complete their distance on a treadmill.
