Virtual race, March

Hi guys,
anyone interested in a little challenge? Let's sign up for a virtual race, say, end of March. You can run an actual race, or run/walk 5/10/however many k's on your own. Would anyone be interested in this?
I am a bit apprehensive about registering for an outdoor run in this dead of winter (never ran outside in the cold :/), but this way, worst case, we do our runs inside or something. The point would be a scheduled race date that we can't back out of on account of weather, unusual running conditions, etc. Accountability and such to beat the winter rut.
What do you think?
I was thinking of running a 5k on March 23. And in a perfect world, it would happen in around 30 mins.
Also, if your sport of choice is cycling, swimming, bocce, chess, etc. same applies. Set a goal, commit to it, then let's go for it :)

    I'll do a virtual 5K with you. Let me know the date. Unless I am working a 12 hour shift that day, I'm in.
