To submit your virtual results, you will head to RunRhody.com and select "Result" from the top navigation menu. From there, select 2025 and the race name, which will bring you to the results page. You will click a button on the top of the page that says "SUBMIT VIRTUAL RESULTS" to submit your time. 

Virtual participation DOES count toward any of our race series, including the Run Rhody Grand Slam, the Greendale Physical Therapy Worcester Triple Crown, and the Tour de Patrick series.
