This may be the most exciting news for all Star Wars fans! In celebration of Star Wars Day, Southeast Asia will be hosting its very first Star Wars Virtual Run 2020, and you may have guessed it right, it begins on 4th May.
Runners get to pledge their allegiance to one of the two sides – the Light side or the Dark side. The run has two categories to choose from, whether you want to join in for a short run of 5.4KM or a marathon of 40KM, you can begin registering for virtual run now.
You can run anywhere, anytime at your own running paths in the neighbourhood or treadmills in the gym. However, all runs have to be tracked by the MOVE Run Traker app to record the distance and the time of your runs. The good news is that you have the option to split your run into a few sessions, but the runs have to be clock-in between 4-31 May.
If you are running the 40KM marathon, you can even grab your best fitness buddy to join in the fun!
Exclusive 3D-engraved trophies of either BB-8 or the First Order Stormtrooper depending on which team you join. Runners who complete the challenge will get the trophies mailed to them after the virtual run ends.
If you’re a huge Star Wars fan and you participate and complete the 40km distance category, you’ll also receive a shiny, gold Darth Vader 40th Anniversary The Empire Strikes Back trophy.
To join, register at Star Wars Virtual Run SEA.
The registration fees are US$25 for the 5.4KM category and US$40 for the 40km category, inclusive of trophy shipping to the 6 participating countries.
