what is a virtual race?

VIRTUAL RACE TIPS

Participating in a virtual race is easy. Unlike a "live race" where the Race Director determines the specific course and starting time and provides timing, a virtual race is crafted by you, the participant!

Create your perfect race experience by deciding your race start time and race route, and use your own tracking app to measure your race distance and race timing.

On May 14th, we'll also live stream a virtual opening ceremony so you can plug into all the positive energy.

The Virtual Race of Hope 2022 race is unique because participants can opt to tune in on race day to connect online with our event crew and other participants throughout the event, or go solo and create your own race day fun any time and date you choose!
