SHARE ON SOCIAL MEDIA

Whether you’re a seasoned runner trying to smash a PB or a beginner looking for motivation to stay fit and healthy, completing a virtual race is a massive achievement. Sharing your activities, photos and the story behind your run on social media platforms is a great way to keep yourself motivated and encourages others.ย 

Evidence

It is quick and easy to send your evidence to us after your race. Either take a photo of your watch or treadmill display showing your run statistics, or capture a screenshot of your completed activity from your running or fitness app.

Complete your details and upload your activity image onto our secure submission form.

Youโ€™ll receive email confirmation that we have received your evidence. And thatโ€™s all there is to it! Your medal will be sent once we have received your evidence.

Delivery

All our medals are posted by Royal Mail postage once we have received and verified your evidence. We offer various postage options. If you have paid for a tracked postage, we can email the tracking reference number on request.

Postage is FREE shipping of medals in the United Kingdom on orders over ยฃ40.00.

We accept entries from overseas. However, postage charges incur an extra cost for entries outside the UK. There may also be extra import duty charges and customs taxes depending on your country. You are reliable to pay such charges. The Running Bug is unable to advise on these charges as they differ from country to country. We recommend you contact your local tax office.

Whilst we make every effort to post your medals out as quickly as possible, we cannot be responsible for any delays or missing items once we have posted your medals. The Running Bug is unable to take any responsibility for loss or damage. However, please contact us if you have not received your medal with 14ย days of receiving confirmation that your medal has been posted. We will be able to offer a replacement medal or issue you a refund.ย 

Charities and Fundraising

As well as providing incentives to stay fit and healthy, our virtual races can be a fantastic way to spread awareness and raise money for a worthy charity that’s close to your heart.ย 

Charities tend to struggle these days with the cost of living, and especially when something out of the ordinary happens like COVID. The work they do is paramount in helping people manage with life-changing conditions or helping researching cures for diseases.ย  This is why we encourage people to pick a charity which is close to their heart and support them by fundraising.ย 

Itโ€™s easy to get started and signing up for one of our virtual challenges is the first step. Find a race here.ย 

Once you have entered a race, then why not create a fundraising page with JustGiving or GoFundMe.

When you create your fundraising page, it’s a good idea to make it personal. Explain the reason you are raising money for your charity, give people some background about what your chosen charity does and tell people about what you are aiming to accomplish.

The next step would be to share. Social media platforms are still an excellent way to tell others about your fundraising. And don’t forget to ask friends, family and work colleagues to sponsor you.

Don’t forget to keep everybody up-to-date with your progress. Posting screenshots of your activities is a great way to let people know how you’re getting on. Posting a photo of your medal at the end of your challenge is also a great way to encourage others to either support you by donating or gives them the incentive to start their own fundraising.
