YOUR NEW JERSEY MILES HELP FIGHT HUNGER ❤️

Race Through America is about more than collecting medals.

It's also about making those miles matter.

15% of every Race Through New Jersey registration is donated to Feeding America, helping support hunger-relief efforts across the United States.

That means every state you complete can represent something bigger than another medal on your rack.

You're getting active.

You're exploring America virtually.

And you're helping support an important cause along the way.

Race across America. Make your miles matter.

Virtual Run Events independently selects charitable organizations to support through our races and is not affiliated with Feeding America.

MORE THAN $1 MILLION RAISED FOR CHARITY

The Virtual Run Events community has helped raise more than $1 million for charities and nonprofit organizations through our virtual races and fitness challenges.

Every registration adds to that impact.

Every state gives us another opportunity to give back.

And every participant helps turn ordinary miles into something bigger.
