Hey all!

I'm back to running after a long hiatus, and started off with the c25k program once again. As I was online reading about running and getting started, I found out about virtual races and signed up for one :) The concept is perfect for me, helping me set goals to work towards! I've been looking around to find forums/communties for virtual runners, but haven't found any yet. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thank you! :-)

    Thank you Tavistock. I have been a part of that group for several years now, lovely group, but not what I was asking about. I'm looking for communities of runners who join virtual races.

    zombies run.
    https://zombiesrungame.com/

    They have a 5k training app, and a regular app with different training programs.
    They also have 5 seasons of the zombies run game with a wonderful story.

    Last but not least, they have a virtual race, and when you sign up for one, you get access to roffernet, a community with lots of runners. Its a really nice place.

    Their next virtual race is next week, so it may be just too late to sign up for one now.

    Should you chose to run for us (able township) you will replace the old runner 5. She never made it back after .. tragic story really.

    Anyway, Sam will fill you in once you get there.

    See you soon, runner 5.
