WHAT IS A VIRTUAL RUNNING EVENT?
It’s a new trend in the running community. Run your chosen distance, anywhere, anytime that’s
convenient for you. Track it through an app on your phone and receive your medal in the mail.
Be part of a virtual community who shares all about it online.
How It Works
The Run:
- Choose your distance: 5K, 10K, Half
Marathon. - Choose your route which can be as easy
running around your neighborhood or on a
treadmill. - Share details with friends, family and your
hero! - Receive a cool medal for your participation.
*Participate anytime during the month you select.
YOUR HERO:
Each participant may dedicate their run to a personal hero or group of heroes. (eg. Family member, frontline worker, hospital, sports team, school/teacher). When you register, you will have the option to donate to a charity. Any donation you make – will be in honor of your hero. In addition, every month, one hero is chosen among the participants and an extra donation is made in their name.

GET FIT + GIVE THANKS + BE INSPIRED!
We are a community of athletes who want to discover and celebrate heroes everywhere. Most
heroes don’t seek recognition, however their stories deserve to be told. They are inspirational.
RunForMyHero gives a voice to every individual athlete to voluntarily donate to a charity in
honor of a hero. Whether you are a runner or athlete of any kind, we welcome you to join us as
we push our physical goals to the next level, while making a positive contribution!
