The Fall-natic Challenge is a challenge where you run/walk three 5K's on your own and score a unique challenge medal for each.

The Virtual Run can be done by itself OR you can add-on the Fall-natic Challenge in conjunction with it.
Similarly, the Fall-natic Challenge can be done by itself to earn more bling or alongside the Virtual Run.
tl;dr the Virtual Run scores you a lightweight tech hoodie, finisher medal, and bib, and is done only once during the fall. The Fall-natic Challenge scores you 3 medals for completing 3 separate virtual runs.
Still stuck? ~70% of participants choose to do both the Virtual Run + Fall-natic Challenge (ambitious, right?)
You can run or walk your 5K anytime, anywhere through November 30th. All your race goodies ship straight to your door. This option allows for maximum flexibility when planning your own race day.
Since 2016, we've offered this and have grown the experience to more than just receiving a packet in the mail. From the moment you sign up, you can engage with fellow runners in our Facebook Community Group, train with others in the free Strava club, and share photos on Instagram.
The majority of our participants don't run their 5K. Instead, they set a goal to complete it whether by walking, jogging, or a mix of all!
The Virtual Run is available worldwide.
Nope! We keep this as flexible and easy as possible so you can just focusing on completing each 5K.
