LIVE MAP TRACKING/RESULTS:

You'll be able to MANUALLY log your miles through your RunSignUp profile or you may use the RaceJoy App for SYNCING! Both methods will apply to the same leaderboard on RunSignUp. You may choose to log miles manually or use the RaceJoy app, or both!

​

LOGGING MILES MANUALLY: At the time of registration, a RunSignUp profile will be created for you. Once the challenge begins and you complete your first miles, you'll sign into your RunSignUp profile and log your activity, distance and time. Your name will appear on the leaderboard with the other challengers. This is a LIVE leaderboard, so your place changes constantly as people log their miles and time. You will also be able to upload photos and share your progress on social media! We highly recommend logging miles daily or weekly to get the most out of this challenge! When you log miles frequently, your fellow participants will know exactly what place they are in on the leaderboard allowing for a fair and fun competition.

​

SYNCING MILES WITH RACEJOY APP: RunSignUp has partnered with RaceJoy to offer participants the ability to sync (automatically upload) their miles and time to the official leaderboard for all GPS tracked activities (running, hiking, walking, biking, etc). This is optional and very efficient! Once the challenge begins, you'll download the RaceJoy app and it will track your running, walking and biking activities. After each activity is finished, your results instantly upload to the leaderboard. RaceJoy App isn't able to track indoor activities, such as indoor cycling, treadmill, etc or other activities such as swimming because the RaceJoy App uses GPS to track your distance and your phone must be on you during the activity.

 

PHOTOS & TOP FINISHER PRIZES
To qualify as a TOP FINISHER, you must use the RaceJoy App throughout the challenge for all GPS trackable activities. This allows for a fair and fun competition!

 

We LOVE seeing your photos and we LOVE giving away awesome prizes for the best photos submitted, so follow and tag @virtualrunlife on Facebook or Instagram and make sure you upload photos when you log your miles!
