1,000 mile running challange 2017

Hello


I like a lot of running which I do a few times a week as well as treadmill in the gym.


I have heard about these 1,000 year challenge and seen people get medals for completing this, were do you do this as the website I have seen is in dollars?


thanks

    I have just had a quick look at this, these all seem to work the same way as the virtual races work. Nowhere validates your runs or anything you are just paying for the medal and expected to get on and do it.

    HAve you tried https://www.virtualrunneruk.com/product/1000-miles-challenge-2017/

    Not vouching for this one, it is just the first one that came up on google.
    This challenge is different from our usual races and is live between 1st January 2017 – 31st December 2017. During the year, run, swim, walk and cycle a minimum of 1,000 miles. The same discipline needs to be completed for the challenge. For example, runners need to complete 1,000 miles by running. Cyclists through their bike rides etc.
    
    Submissions for 2017 will be required by 5th January 2018 at 5pm to claim your medal. Examples of proof include running/cycling/walking apps, Garmin photos, Fitbit and VivoSmart data etc. You must submit a minimum of 1,000 miles to qualify for this challenge. We only require one submission once you complete via the ‘My Races’ section of the website.
    
    Once you submit your distance, your medal will be posted within 5 working days.
    
    We will publish a list of all participants who complete the challenge and their completion date!
