REWARDS

Welcome to Our Rewards Hub

Because your miles matter – and so do you.

At The Running Bug, we believe every step you take and every challenge you complete, should be rewarded. That’s why our Rewards programme is designed to boost your motivation, slash your costs, and make your virtual running experience even more enjoyable.


How it works: Earn, Redeem, Enjoy

Earn points every time you race

Once you’re a registered member, every time you enter one of our virtual challenges, you’ll earn 2 reward points for every £1 spent. That means a £10 race gives you 20 points.

Your points are released into your account once your order status is marked “completed” — i.e. when your medal has been dispatched.

Use points to power your entries

Points can be redeemed (partially or fully) against any race entry. On the checkout page (once logged in), simply tick the box to apply your points and see how much you can save.

Share the bug, get extra points

Got friends or family who love to run too? Share your unique referral link. If they sign up and enter a race, you’ll score 5 bonus points. It’s a win for you, and a fun nudge for them to join the fun.


Other Rewards That Make Running With Us Even Better

  • Free medal delivery when you spend £40 or more — no extra postage costs for your shiny finishers’ rewards.

  • 10% off race fees when you subscribe to our newsletter — stay informed, stay inspired, and enjoy an instant discount.

  • 15% off your first race entry when you create an account — an onboarding treat just for joining our community.

  • Buy 2, get the 3rd at half price — mix and match race entries and save on your third challenge.


Why Our Rewards Are Worth It

  • Flexible & fair — use your points however you like across different races
