What is a Virtual Runathon?
A Beginners Virtual Runathon is a 5K or 10K virtual running challenge designed specifically for new runners and beginners. It's 'virtual' so you can complete it at any location and at your own pace – you can run, jog or walk, outside or on a treadmill and individually or with friends. Included is an easy-to-follow, eight-week training programme for beginners delivered daily via the Get Event Fit app and you're rewarded with a Virtuathon finisher medal for your achievement!
Register for your Virtual Runathon – even use it to raise vital funds for your chosen charity.
