Typically, the only ones that I will do are to support organizations that have helped support me. The simple reason behind this is that I want to be out doing things physically. I&#8217;ve also got enough race gear that I don&#8217;t need to be paying extra money to run by myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The exception to this is the Brewery Running Series VirtuALL Distance Challenge. When I saw this in late 2020, I thought it would be something fun. It has been; but it&#8217;s also been a good motivating object. There have been days where I just didn&#8217;t want to get out there for a training session. But having that little extra push to complete the current challenge helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At this point, the goal is to complete the entire US before the end of the decade. Alaska on its own (35K+ miles for the perimeter) will take more than a year. It will be a fun goal, and I know that it will all pay dividends in the long run\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can learn more about the VirtuALL challenge and sign up at https:\/\/breweryrunningseries.com\/virtuall\/ .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As I&#8217;ve said many times over the the last 15 months, I am NOT a fan of virtual events.
