What is a Virtual Race?
A virtual race means you can run (or walk) anywhere — in your neighborhood, on a treadmill, or even down a hallway — while avoiding large gatherings. Run at your own pace and record your time any time between September 27th at 8:30 a.m. and October 4th at 11:59 p.m. Upload your results to be included in the virtual standings by age group. Please note virtual participants will receive a pin, but no t-shirt, this year.

In-Person Registration Deadlines
Sign up by September 4th to guarantee a shirt in your chosen size and a flight pin with this year’s design. Registrations after September 4th will still receive a flight pin, but shirts may not be guaranteed due to production times.
Don’t forget to tag your photos with @angelflightwest!
