Grab your [virtual] baton and join the 200 for T1D virtual relay challenge!
Ragnar Relay and Breakthrough T1D have joined forces to create a virtual challenge that keeps you connected with friends and family and provides an opportunity to support the millions of people all over the world impacted by type 1 diabetes (T1D). Over the weekend of June 19-21, teams of runners will do ‘200 for T1D’, collectively running 200 miles together, but physically apart so that we all remain safe during these uncertain times. During 200 for T1D, let’s show the T1D community how long we can run, and how far we’ll go in our fight for cures.
How it Works
1. Register at ragnar.jdrf.org
2. Build your team (with up to 36 runners)
3. Fundraise and earn sweet swag (see photo below!)
4. Runners divvy up the mileage (as much or as little as you want!)
5. Collectively, your team will run 200 miles over the weekend of June 19-21 and post about it using the hashtags #200forT1D and #JDRFRunsRagnar
