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. 

Evidence

Although it’s not compulsory, many people still like to share their evidence with us — and it couldn’t be simpler. You can 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.

Once you have your evidence ready, visit our submission form, complete the required details, and upload your file.

After submitting your evidence, you’ll see an on-screen confirmation to let you know it’s been successfully received. And that’s all there is to it!

Fundraising

As well as providing an incentive to stay fit and healthy, our virtual races can be a fantastic way to spread awareness and raise money for a worthy charity. 

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

It’s easy to get started and signing up for one of our virtual challenges is the first step. Find a race here. 

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.
