We like to choose unique virtual routes and share geographical facts about the routes that we use.  Verona, which is where your challenge starts, is known not only for Shakespearean associations with Romeo and Juliet, but also for its impressive architecture, with a remarkably preserved 1st century amphitheatre, countless churches, historic castles and bridges over the River Adige. The interactive route heads towards Venice; a city enriched in history and known throughout the world for its celebrated art and architecture.

Virtual challenges? What are they? We select a distance and link to a global location - a virtual route. We select different challenges each month and design a bespoke, limited edition medal. All medals will reflect our challenge selection, are unique, and will be a great addition to your medal collection. Our challenges.

Fun fact: The Battle of Marathon involved a runner called Pheidippides running from Marathon to Athens to deliver news of a Greek victory over an invading Persian army. Lots of people run marathons in places all over the world and dedicate themselves to running a marathon (which is based on the distance from Marathon to Athens). You don't need to be in Marathon, Greece to run one.

Similarly, for our challenges, whether you complete the distance on the treadmill, use your local running route, or walk the distance with friends...we don't mind as long as you cover your distance. We'll send you your awesome 'Arctic  Challenge' medal when you've done it. It's awesome...just like you!
