Northbound Run VIRTUAL BOSTON 5K/10K/13.1

About the event

This is a Virtual Run. Run Anywhere, Run Anytime, Set a Goal
Limited to just 25 participants for entry into our Signature Monthly Release Contest (only for Members), which isn't judged by time. Forget the crowds, the early alarms, and the parking hunt. This is a run you could do in your pajamas (okay, running pajamas). Pick your route, pace, and time. 

For every mile you run, we plant a tree. A 5K is 3+ trees, a 10K is 6+, and a half-marathon is 13+. 

What You Get (Swag Bag):

  • Moisture-wicking technical Running Shirt (shipped to your address, U.S. only)
  • Finisher’s medal shipped to you
  • Entry into our Exclusive Monthly Virtual Contest with Prizes (Running Gear, Healthy Snacks, and more!)
  • Online results & certificate of completion
  • Plant a Tree for every mile you run

The Fun Stuff:

  • Your course, your rules. Run around the block, up your favorite trail, laps on a track, or on the treadmill while binge-watching your show. Any day in the run window counts.
  • All paces and ages are welcome (under 18 with a guardian). Run it, jog it, walk it, skip it. The trees don’t care how fast you go.   
  • No gear, no setup, no fuss. Just you, your shoes, and a whole lot of good for our world!
  • You’re never alone. Sign up and you’ll get real support toward your fitness goals, including access to our Exclusive Members-only Monthly Contests with unique running prizes and access to our Strava Groups to be part of a Community (Totally Optional). 


Set a Goal for something Meaningful: When you sign up, you’re not just registering for a run. You’re setting a goal toward your fitness goals, while doing something meaningful.

Timing? Totally Optional. Track your time using an app like Strava, RunKeeper, or Nike Run, then submit it through our easy online form to be posted. No timing chips. This is about progress, not pressure.

Packet Pickup? Skip it.
There are no lines and no hassle, because everything ships straight to your door. (Double-check your full U.S. mailing address, including apartment number, when you register, as your shirt and medal are sent to this address!)

When Will My Swag Arrive?
Your shirt will arrive at your mailing address the week before your run window opens.

Signing Up Last Minute? (Within 2 Weeks of the Run Window)
No problem! Just note that shipping may not catch up in time, so your shirt could arrive after you’ve finished. No worries: wear whatever you like and get your miles in anyway!

When Will I Receive My Run Details?
We’ll email your virtual run info the week that you sign-up, including tips for mapping your route and how to submit your time.
