We all know I can’t resist a race. I’m really kind of an addict. I’m not good at pushing myself when I’m doing a training run, so I need a reason to go harder and faster than my usual long run pace. Luckily for me, a virtual race works to push me as well. Add in the fact that my new training plan calls for some pretty significant tempo runs and I’m looking for any excuse to push myself.
So, when Gone for a Run reached out to me about their July virtual race, I was all in!
Never run a virtual race before? Here’s how it works: Sign up, go for a run of the prescribed distance, enjoy your swag! And while you are at it, post about your race on social media so we can all cheer you on!
Check out the All 4 Run Virtual Race Swag:
Basic entry (I’m totally in it for the tank and the magnet!):
Upgrade Option 1 (check out the awesome socks!!!):
Upgrade Option 2 (ooh, a tutu!):
Important details: Register by June 22, 2015! Run your race between July 2-5, 2015. Make sure you have fun and take great pictures!!!
Disclaimer: I was given a free entry in exchange for posting, but all opinions are my own and I can’t wait to get the tank top!
I’m running this one too! 🙂

I love a great virtual with swag! The tutu is super cute. I’ve never run in one come to think of it.

I’m normally not one for virtual races (I spend a ton of money running 3 or 4 real-life 5K races a month) but that tank top and medal are super cute. You just can’t beat a nice tank top for running, it looks a lot nicer than most race shirts.

I have never done a virtual race and I’m just not sure why. For whatever reason, I don’t trust myself, which is ridiculous!

Such fun…and is it bad that I kind of love that tutu?

Ha-ha upgrade for a tutu! That’s cool how they have different levels of participation swag on a virtual race.

I love that log off and go for a run medal! These are all cute and I really need to sign up for a virtual race soon when I know I can commit to it.

What a cool idea. I think that would be fun to do with friends from around the world… I’d love to try it.
