Virtual runs?

[pixeemom]

Hi all
So I did my very first VR this past Tuesday and got a pretty cool medal for it, I plan on doing two more with the same company....racesforawareness.
But my question is, has anyone done them and if so what sites do you use?
I am looking for one that has a run for bullying specifically, but will be interested in just looking just in general for a cause.
TIA

I personally haven't. Nothing against them, but if I'm doing a race, I need a rabbit.

I don't understand. Virtual Running as a compare to what? Running outside or on the treadmill? Running with one of those virtual reality system systems on you?

a VR is a run you do on your own time, pace, etc. and its usually for a charity, you pay for the cost of the medal and a portion goes towards the charity they are hosting.

Basically you do a run wherever you want to. Make a payment to the charity/group putting it on. You may get a shirt, a medal, a bib, all of or none of the above. Basically you are making a donation to charity (for most of them) and then getting a medal as your thank you gift. And you happen to be making your daily run be the distance they prescribe.

I have used runner2life and USroadrunning. There is also one called virtualrunworld, that has "Disney" type medals.
