Virtual Race Safety Tips 

• Avoid high traffic pedestrian and vehicle areas. Run or walk close to home in your neighbourhood during a quieter time of day. 
• Adhere to social distancing practices* while you are out running or walking. Can you safely pass someone? Can you run safely on the road? Make sure you always have a safe way to move around people to maintain 6 feet of distance. 

• Complete your run on a treadmill, if this is an option that is available to you and that you would prefer.  
• Wear appropriate clothing. Be visible and dress for the weather.  
• Bring water and/or nutrition if you’re planning a longer route. There are no water stations along the way in a virtual race.  
• Carry a cell phone with you during your virtual race and tell someone the route you’re running in case of emergency.  

* follow the advice of your local public health authority, to help stop the spread of coronavirus.
