Live Challenges
Get a look at the range of Virtual Challenges using the RunSignup Challenge Platform to reach supporters across the country.
The Classic Challenge: Across a State
The Great Virtual Race Across Tennessee was an instant success in Spring of 2020, inspiring a range of run-across-the-state challenges. It's not a new idea any more, but it's still a tangible event style with opportunities to tie in tourism and local businesses. A few examples:
- Great Virtual Race Across Tennessee
- The New Jersey Virtual Challenge
- The Buckeye State Challenge
- One NY Virtual Challenge

Team Challenges
Bring people together with challenges that allow teams of participants to complete the ultimate goal together.
Collaborative Goals
These challenges make all participants a part of one giant team. It's a great model for fundraising!
- Miles that Matter 100,000 Mile Challenge
- DetermiNation Runs the Country
- Blue Cross Winter Warmup Community Challenge
Elevation Challenges
It's not all about miles. Offer a challenge based on elevation gain during activities (running, walking, biking, etc) or incorporate elevation into the distance challenge.
Unique Fitness Challenges
It's not only about running or biking a cumulative number of miles. Other endurance-related challenges focus on number of minutes of exercise or days of consecutive exercise.
Fundraising-Focused Challenges
While many of the above challenges support a nonprofit (or are even organized by one), but for these events, the message focuses on the cause more than the accomplishment.
Non-Endurance Challenges
We said challenges can be used for anything, and we meant anything. These challenges aren't really about running or exercise at all.
