Virtual 1/2 marathon
Welcome to Nanook Recreation's
Virtual 1/2 marathon
This virtual 1/2 marathon is meant to help you get out and exercise during this time of social distancing and quarantine. The idea behind this event is that each person who participates runs, jogs, walks, or skis their own 1/2 marathon. After completing the 1/2 marathon, participants can log their times through this site. So even if we can't meet to do the event together, we can virtually encourage each other to exercise and get outside!
How does it work?
You have 10 weeks to complete a 10km (6.2 miles) walk, jog, run or ski then you will self report your finishing time on our Report Results page. (see the navigation bar above)
