Breaking Free 2020 Distance Challenge

Passion Meets Fitness

Take a break from your daily routine and experience something totally different. When you register for our Virtual Race, you’re signing up for much more than just a spirited event. Our creative organizers have brought their passion and knowledge to the table, with the intention of making this year's Breaking Free Race unforgettable. Although we wish we could see our runners face-to-face, we are excited to try something new. Don't let this period of isolation stop you from making a difference in the lives of those impacted by domestic violence. All proceeds will go toward the Emergency Safe Shelter! Our shelter offers a safe refuge for women and children who are displaced due to family violence. This year, we invite you to go the distance while staying socially distant!

​

We have created two separate challenges this year. Since the competition will last the entire month of October, we wanted to offer participants with options! The first is our 25 Miles in 1 Month Challenge. Runners (or walkers!) will complete a total of 25 miles at their own pace. The second option is our Distance Challenge. This is where you have a chance to create a personal goal and put yourself to the test! Complete as many miles as you can throughout the entire month! 

​

These challenges are available for individuals as well as teams of four. We will be grouping team members and tracking miles just like we do with individuals! Those who compete as a team will be eligible to win BOTH individual and team recognition and prizes! Additionally, a special prize will be awarded to the top fundraising team and individual! Check out our discussion board on the Virtual Racetrack to see weekly updates on runners' progress and fundraising! 

​

Go ahead and register now to secure your spot, and invite all your friends! Don't waste a minute!
