Entry Fees: Free! Donations are recommended and help fund the operation.
Start Time: 6pm for all races
Classes & Age Groups: No age classes. The only categories are men/ women long/ short, and a kids course. Participate in whatever race you want!

The virtual race series will be tracked through Strava. There will be a set course that is open for 2-3 weeks. You can run the course as many times as you wish. This too will be a points series with about 5 courses throughout the summer. Follow Facebook and Strava (FKT MQT) for course details. If you run the course and Strava does not pick up the race segment, but the actual segment/ course was completed, then send Andrew the details and credit will be given.
