After the great success of the first “Run For The Trees” in 2020 Michigan’s DNR is repeating their Bob Ross themed event in 2021.
Participants can register from all over the world. All proceeds from the race support tree-planting and preservation efforts in Michigan’s state parks.
The registration is capped at 20,000 participants, so don’t wait too long to secure a place. Upon registration, you will receive a commemorative T-Shirt, racing bib, and a finisher’s medal featuring a Bob Ross painting.
While your first guess might be some kind of video game thing you’ll be running and sweating in real life. Virtual just means that there is no fixed location or time for the race like we know it from traditional events.
Want to help plant some greenery but you’re not sure if you can finish the whole 5k running? We’ve got you. Nobody who isn’t a regular runner can just up and run for half an hour straight – no reason to feel bad about it.
