Virtual Challenge #1: 1-Mile Run - UPDATE


We set out on Thursday to give you a virtual 1-mile challenge. We have gotten some interest, but we know we can do better. Here's the original article if you missed it.

We are going to make a few tweaks to the original challenge:

  1. You can either enter yourself as an individual or as part of a "team". (a team is still 3 runners)
  2. Your "team" does not need to be from your same high school, but your other teammates do have to be part of an actual high school team. Come up with a team name for your squad.
  3. PLEASE DO THIS RUN ON YOUR OWN - SOCIAL DISTANCING IS PARAMOUNT.
  4. We don't want to make this too onerous for you, so you can get us your proof of your 1-mile run in a number of ways: A) Share your video with us here B) Share your Garmin, Strava, or other running app evidence with us (milesplitdza@gmail.com) C) Share the video by messaging us through our Facebook Page and adding it there. Remember use #milesplitazvirtual. 
  5. No time cut-off. You can now enter yourself into this challenge no matter how fast or slow your mile time is.
  6. The new deadline is now NEXT SATURDAY (March 28th @ 6 PM)
  7. There will now be individual and team winners who will all get an article about them in MileSplit AZ.

BE SAFE. HAVE FUN. GOOD LUCK.
