The Force Be With You

May The 4th or STAR WARS Day is going to be more exciting this year it will be the start of the STAR WARS Virtual Run. Also, it marks the 40th Anniversary of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back and runners will receive a commemorative Finisher Trophy upon completion of the virtual run. Limited edition merchandise will also be available for STAR WARS fans to purchase.

In collaboration with LIV3LY, Southeast Asia’s leading Social Fitness App, the STAR WARS Virtual Run is open to fans and runners from Philippines, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam. Runners can pledge their allegiance to their chosen side – light or dark – and fight in the galaxy’s most epic virtual run on treadmills or any running path they choose.

What is a Virtual Run?

When we say runs, we usually think of the big fun runs with hundreds of participants. Well, a virtual run is a different thing. It is more of a collaborative running that is being tracked by an app. For this one, LIV3LY will be the partner fitness app. Runners may opt to run solo in the 5.4km (Individual) or pair up with a friend in the 40km (Individual or Group of Two) where the distances can be completed all at once or over a period of time. Runners will have to complete the distance by September 30 2020 in order to be eligible for the Finisher Trophies.
