Ghouls on the Run Virtual Race


Do you love running and Halloween? Are you ready to run 3.1 spooky miles? Here’s your chance with the Ghouls on the Run Virtual Race!  This great race scheduled for October 29 to October 31, and is a super way to spend part of your Halloween weekend with local runners – and the whole Gone for a Run Virtual Race community – running or walking your preferred 3.1 mile path.  When you register, choose between a fun bright orange T-shirt or tank top as part of your race packet, which will also contain an authentic race bib and a glow in the dark medal (because what’s cooler than a medal? A medal that glows!) Register for this creepy-crawly fun race today – space is limited.

Even though most of the virtual racers do run on the official days, there is nothing stopping you from running it earlier or later, as your schedule permits. You don’t even have to run! Lots of people walk the races – or do a mix of both walking and running – depending on how long they have been running and what they are used to.  Not only is there nobody who is going to judge you for that, as part of our Virtual Race community, we’re going to encourage you to keep going, and to keep setting new goals. There’s no runner who started out running marathons at full speed, and no runner who ever said, “well, that’s it, I am all out of goals.”  The fact that you got involved, and were a part of a virtual race is an accomplishment in and of itself – that’s why we give you a medal. And I may have mentioned this, but the medal glows.

As for this great race, when you sign up, you are also contributing to charity. This race, we’ll be running to raise money for Friends of Jaclyn, a foundation that supports children who are struggling with pediatric cancer and their families. We’re honored to be working with them and helping them do their very meaningful work.

As an added bonus for our Virtual Runners, we are offering select Halloween-themed running gear – fun pumpkin socks, a RokBAND Multi-Functional Headband, a Runner’s Tutu, and a safety light band at exclusive discounted price for race participants.  Just another way to say we appreciate you and want you to have the best virtual race possible. Another fun suggestion? Run the race in a Halloween costume.

Register for this great Ghouls on the Run Virtual Race today and have a Happy Halloween full of sights and scares – and a great time running the race! Don’t forget to post your race recaps and photos to our Facebook page – we love hearing your unique stories and seeing you celebrate your accomplishment after you finished the race.
