Let’s run a marathon together—virtually—to support children and families in our community.

Starting Sept. 16 through Oct. 17, Run United Virtual Marathon participants will log at least 25 miles on their own. Then, we’ll all complete the final 1.2 miles together with a virtual “race” on Oct. 18.

The event is open to all ages and abilities. You are welcome to complete your miles in whatever way works best for you—walking, running or rolling!

THE CAUSE

Funds raised through the Run United Virtual Marathon will go to support efforts to close the digital divide for Detroit students, providing them with laptops, internet access and other technology supports.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE

1. SIGN UP

Sign up for the Run United Virtual Marathon and create your profile with a photo, fundraising/miles goals and why you’re running with us.

2. GET RUNNING

Starting Sept. 16 through Oct. 17, complete your miles however you’d like—all in one day or one mile at a time; running or walking; in your neighborhood or on a treadmill; solo or with your dog, kids or spouse. Whatever fits your schedule and preference! Log your miles using OneCause (under "Complete Activities"), or by connecting your OneCause account to the Strava app to have them load automatically.

3. EARN POINTS

Earn points by fundraising, posting photos, logging miles, volunteering, and inviting your friends and family to join. We'll also have some prizes for the top point-getters!

4. CELEBRATE

Finish your last 1.2 miles (a total of 26.2 for a full marathon) with your Run United teammates (virtually, or safely in groups) on Oct. 18.
