Virtual 5K
Can't come to the race but want to participate, get a t-shirt and a finisher medal?
Want to try a 5K but you're really shy to show up?
We have a race for you, VIRTUAL RACE!
A virtual race can be completed at any location. You can walk, use the treadmill, run outside or participate in another race. This is a great way for the rookie runner to build up confidence to show up for the real thing!
Virtual races are a great way to stay fit, motivated, have the sense of participating and get a great t-shirt and medal!
You can complete the required distance in each discipline during the week coming up to the actual race, in your pace, in your environment.
You can send us your stats at virtual@playtri.com You can send the evidence of completing the race distances to virtual@playtri.com but it is not required. You can send a screenshot from an app, your watch, your laptop or even a photo of your treadmill results for your runs. You can use MayMyRun / MapMyRide, Strava, Garmin or any other digital fitness app.
Your t-shirt and finisher medal will be mailed to you the week after the race. Have fun out there!
