A Virtual Race for Real Hunger

A virtual race can be run or walked anytime and anywhere.  You can run it outdoors or even indoors on a treadmill.  There are no parking problems. No crowds. No long Porta Potty lines!

Simply register for the Hustle Against Hunger event, complete the distance anytime and anywhere you desire, and upload your finish time.  We will mail your swag items after you have uploaded your results and the race period has ended.  

Yes! Young or old, runners or walkers, fast or slow – we encourage participants of all ages and ability levels.  This event is about supporting the Oregon Food Bank and coming together as a running community during this time.  

You can complete your race and submit your time between Saturday, May 16th at 12:01am through Sunday June 14th at 11:59pm (PST). 

This depends on which package you select during registration.  All participants will receive a virtual race bib and their name in the online results.  You can also add on items to your registration such as a bottle opener coaster set, t-shirt, collapsible cup and a facemask.

Run wherever you would like.  Run on the street, trails, track or treadmill.  Run up hills, down hills or on flat ground.  It is all up to you.

Submit with the Runkeeper app (see instructions below). You will submit your results by following a link that Negative Split Timing will email to you. This link will take you to the results site and you will just enter the unique confirmation code that will enable you to record your time.

   *IMPORTANT: Once you accept the challenge, the very next run of equal or greater distance you complete on Runkeeper will be recorded as your virtual run time. If you plan to use the Runkeeper app to train more before completing your official virtual run, we recommend waiting to join the challenge until you’re ready to make it count!

See previous question for submitting / finding your results.  Since this is a month long race, our timing company will be updating results every 5-7 days.  Depending on when you run you may have to wait several days for your results to show up.
