I am running in support of a fantastic charity and cause. I am looking forward to running 1000 laps of my garden!
After the disappointment of having to postpone Oxford Town and Gown 2020 due to the current coronavirus situation, we wanted to give runners an alternative way of completing their race.
A virtual race allows you to either run 3k, 10k, or 10-miles at a time and date that suits you, in the location that you are staying. You'll still receive the satisfaction of completing the run, sharing with others and receiving a well deserved medal, sent to you in the post once you have uploaded your run.
We do ask that you complete this run as your 'one form of exercise a day', that you only run if and when you are feeling completely well, and that you complete it only with those that you are living with (at a safe distance). Perhaps consider taking it a bit easier, to ensure you keep a strong immune system during this unsettling time.
Wear orange, enjoy it, eat some cake at the end!
