WHAT OUR RUNNERS SAY

I was curious about the virtual race, having never done it before. It was good to do at my own pace. The Running Bug community is really cool as it shares real life experiences. It has motivated me to carry on. It was nice to get a medal for my achievement.
Rogerio
I would highly recommend you to join The Running Bug. The website is user-friendly. I have done a few virtual runs and it's always been easy to order and the medals have arrived on time. All in all it's 10/10
Mark
Running Bug is a fantastic group. Lots of support and advice even a few laughs too. Medals are really well made and you don't have to wait very long for them to be delivered once you've downloaded your response.
Anette
I had a wonderful experience with my Remembrance Sunday run. The team were really helpful and supportive, since I was isolated the weekend of the run due to COVID-19. When I contacted the team they said I could run it as soon as I was able to.. They even sent me a replacement medal when the first one didn't arrive
Stephen
What can I say, only been with you a few months. I love the running challenges and the medals are great too. The website is great, very informative. Hopefully full of challenges next year, maybe one day will be able to do an actual race, not virtual. Thanks for all you do Running Bug to keep us all motivated x
Cheryl
I love how The Running Bug have created an online community for runners of all levels from all over! The race themes are unique and the medals are brilliantly made! I enjoy looking through the website and seeing what exciting races are coming up soon
Rachel
Just like to say how much I appreciate the virtual races you do. For me, a pensioner, I find your races much more affordable than other places and there is no expense of travelling to races. I will be doing more of them this year
Charles
