RACE INFO

WHEN AND HOW CAN I SUBMIT MY activities?

This challenge relies on the honor system and you'll be able to submit your activities between November 1st and 30th, 2020 directly onto your RunSignUp.com profile. We do encourage you to take photos of your watch, phone screen, treadmill, etc to share your results and/or activity on the Facebook Challengers’ group. For a step-by-step tutorial click here.



IS THERE A DEADLINE TO REGISTER?

Registration will be opened until November 30th or until sold out.



How many miles per day is this craziness?

The goal is to run and/or walk 50 miles between November 1st and 30th. This is just ~1.6 miles daily or ~12.5 weekly and we’ll have a dedicated team of accountability trainers coaching you through the whole experience.

We really recommend anyone to commit to this. You'll be surprised how life-changing this experience can be.



When will I receive my medal and t-shirt?

We will mail out challenge packets on December 2nd. If you were able to complete your challenge on time, you will receive our signature shirt and finIsher medal. If you did not complete the challenge, you will still receive our signature shirt and Buff if included in your registration.

Please allow 2-5 days to receive your packet.



Virtual Events Cancellation Policy

The marathon running industry's policy is that all entry fees and ancillary purchases are non-refundable and non-transferable under any and all circumstances. This policy applies to all entrants and is in effect whether you are injured, have an unexpected family/business emergency, have a medical emergency, etc.



What is included with the registration fee? Do I get any swag?

Included in the registration fee is your virtual challenge entry, our signature performance shirt, a finisher medal and for the first 1000 runners a Run Malibu buff (face cover). Additionally you'll get a full month of access to a dedicated team of fitness & accountability trainers provided by ALL IN by Teddi Mellencamp. There will also be sponsor prizes, offers, and much more.



How does the 50-Mile Challenge work?

The VRT 50-Mile Challenge can take place wherever you like, at whatever time is convenient to you. Go for a run, a walk, or a crawl, and log your activities daily or weekly (yes, we allow you to retroactively add mileage) on your RunSignUp.com profile between November 1st and the 30th until you reach 50 miles or beyond! As you progress throughout your challenge milestones you will earn badges, receive special prizes from our sponsors and extra support from your accountability coaches. Links to the classes and blog articles will be made available in our private Facebook group, so we recommend you join that to maximize your experience during the challenge.



Can I partecipate in multiple virtual events?

Absolutely! We actually encourage that. In fact if you sign up for the Malibu VRTL 5K as well as the VRTL 50-Mile Challenge for instance, you can log the 5K run as both the result of your 5K race and one of the activities towards completing your challenge! The same thing applies to the Malibu VRTL Half Marathon +VRTL 50-Mile Challenge, or even the Malibu VRTL 5K + VRTL Half Marathon +VRTL 50-Mile Challenge. Boom!



Refund Policy

The marathon running industry's policy is that all entry fees and ancillary purchases are non-refundable and non-transferable under any and all circumstances. However, we’re living though a global pandemic which has significantly impacted all of us to an extent that no one could ever have imagined. For this reason we have decided to review our standard cancellation policy allowing free deferrals to 2021 or 2022 (including add-ons) and to provide new virtual options to be a positive light in these difficult times.



Are Internation participants allowed?

Unfortunately, not at this time. This event is open to residents of the U.S. and U.S. Territories only, and medals may only be shipped to addresses within these regions. Please note that medals cannot be shipped to a PO Box or APO Box. After 2 attempts to deliver medals to the address provided, no additional attempts will be made.
