L.A. to VEGAS has three Races to choose from
PLACE YOUR BETS...
"I'm All-In!"
You will need to cover an average of 9.54 miles each day if you're going to make it on time. How you spend your mileage is totally your "call" (pun intended). You may go shorter during the week and stack up on the weekends but remember that you are gambling against other runners for bragging rights.
"I think I'll Slow-Play!"
This event is non-competitive but only if you think running an average of 4.77 miles daily for 60-days isn't competitive! Here you have more time to get yourself from L.A. to Vegas and you may play your hand any way you like with fewer miles during the week and shoving all-in on the weekends. This category is great for runners who want to form teams to run together virtually or even set up their own team competitions!
"I'm No Gambler!"
There are no gamblers in this division... you are slow playing by running approximately 3.18 miles each day (or 22.26 miles each week) to get yourself to Vegas. This is an excellent option for newbies or anyone who wants a personal challenge toward better health and fitness.
