Run, walk, or hike 25 miles in 25 days and accumulate 2500 feet of elevation.
The American Trail Running Association (ATRA) has opened registration for our spring virtual trail running challenge. This is the third in a series of challenges designed to celebrate our 25th anniversary and inspire the community to experience the outdoors and enjoy the trails whether running, walking, or hiking. As part of the challenge, individual participants can opt in to be profiled in our Trail News to share their personal trail story.
ATRA’s Spring Challenge 25 is hosted on the FitRankings platform and gets underway on April 1 and runs through April 25. Participants set a goal to run 25 miles and gain 2500 feet of elevation over the course of the Challenge with product from KINeSYS Performance Sunscreen going to the top mileage participant and top elevation participant.
