Description

Everyone deserves the right to have clean water. MissionCleanWater has been working to ensure everyone, regardless of race, religion, or income can have access to clean water. 30 Days for Clean Water is a virtual effort to fully fund different clean water projects in 30 days. Choose from single day or month-long virtual runs, individual or team levels, that lets any skill level participate. All race registrations will be going towards helping different communities and schools find access to clean water. 

**In order to make this event more affordable and lower the cost during COVID-19, we will not be giving out shirts or medals. Instead, you will be receiving a personalized video created by the founder of MissionCleanWater thanking you for your participation and future reports on the impact of your race registration/donation.**

Please think about where you are running and listen to local, state, and national COVID guidelines. Be considerate, practice social distancing. Find safe roads or trails to run if not running on a treadmill or indoors.

What is a Virtual Run?

Imagine a race where you don't have to wake up at 5:30 am on a weekend, there is unlimited parking spots, no line to use the bathroom, and you can start whenever you would like from any location. That is what a Virtual Run is.
With a virtual run, once you register, you complete the distance on the date shared from any location. You have the entire day to do so giving you the opportunity to sleep in and start when ready. You can pick the location giving you the chance to make an easier or harder course and on any surface such as road, trail, or treadmill. 
When you start your run, make sure to use a running app such as Strava, MapMyRun, or Gaia GPS or use a running watch to track your distance and time. If you forget, you can log on to those services remotely and recreate the run you did and give a rough estimate of your time. Submit your time as a picture to missioncleanwater@gmail.com or (908) 327-4618 and you have completed your Virtual Event!
