Run the Texas Coast for Kindness! The Surfside Beach Marathon and the SEAKers (Students Engaging in Acts of Kindness) team up to bring you the Texas Coast & Kindness Challenge. Choose your virtual course - Bolivar Peninsula to Surfside Beach (60 Miles), Aransas Pass to Padre Island (40 Miles) or both! Miles can be completed by running, walking, biking or swimming - you have 2 months to complete your challenge - averaging out to less than 12 miles a week for 100 mile challenge. The Texas Coast & Kindness Challenge officially Kicks off October 5, 2020 and ends December 7th, lasting 9 weeks. You will have until December 14th to submit your mileage.
Each week you will receive updates on your virtual route, fun facts, motivation and a Kindness challenge from The SEAKers. Log your activities and complete the weekly kindness challenge for weekly giveaways. Share your challenge photos on RunSignUp and on Social Media - join our Facebook Group or use the hashtag #CoastforKindness on Instagram and Twitter!
Participants will receive a personalized virtual bib, technical t-shirt, finisher medal based on challenge (2 for those who complete the 100 miles), downloadable personalized finisher certificate, virtual race bag with coupons and more swag mailed to them! 100 Mile Challenge Registration will include a commemorative beach towel.
Is it just us or does the world today seems a little messy? We have partnered with the SEAKers (Students Engaging in Acts of Kindness) to help make the world a little cleaner and with your help, a little kinder. The SEAKer Students and nationwide participating classes have pledged to pick up 1 piece of trash for every 5 miles run during this challenge.
It's up to you to make sure the kindness doesn't stop there! Every participant has an opportunity to participate alongside the SEAKers in their weekly Kindness Challenges. And for every act you post on RunSignUp or the Texas Coast Challenge Facebook Group, you earn one raffle ticket into our weekly giveaway.
We ask that all registrants certify that they will comply with the current CDC Guidelines and other directives from the Governor of their respective state in participating and completing their Challenge. Our strong advice is to "EXERCISE ALONE" or with your immediate family members. We all need to do our part to "stop the spread". Be safe and do your part.
Here are some ways to be safe and still get your workout, training or challenge completed:
