SIXTH LEG OF THE VIRTUAL RACE (see details below)
Hi everyone, a reminder that since this is a virtual race, the distance can be run from anywhere, anytime, from the minute you register.
As mentioned previously, wanting to make this race more interesting, we have decided to brake down the 1200km into 7 shorter legs, each one representing a different area covered around New-Brunswick. At the end of each leg, we will be drawing for prizes coming from businesses and municipalities from that designated racing area.
Have fun, and don’t forget to enjoy the journey !!!
FREDERICTON – SAINT JOHN CHALLENGE (165 km)
For our sixth leg of the race, participants will be virtually racing from Fredericton to Saint John. A reminder that racers can cover the distance either via run, walk, bike, or all the above. Racers can log their kms either on their own (paper log) or by using an App (ex. Strava etc.). No need to show proof once your 165 km is completed, but racers can post a picture in either our Facebook or Strava group… a 6th achievement worth celebrating! Prizes for this leg of the race will be drawn on November 30. Please note that all participants, whether they reach this destination by November 30 or not, will have their names placed in the draw for the prizes.
CHALLENGE
Having promoted Staycations across New Brunswick throughout this event, you have undoubtedly witnessed what a truly amazing province we live in. Some of you have already been sharing beautiful pictures on our group page, and that has inspired us to come up with this next challenge. Help promote NB by sharing your pics, old or new! We want you to showcase where you are from and where you have been. And for those of you who are participating in our TOUR NB event but live outside the province, we are inviting you to do the same. To add some incentive, every racer that shares their amazing pics will have their names added to the draw a 2nd time!!!
