How it works
Tracking Your
Activity
We recommend using a tracking app to log your running activity during your challenge – any tracking app or watch can be used. You also have the option of using our online tracker to log each run as you go, this is available here on the challenge page from the start of the challenge. You can log in and start tracking runs as soon as your challenge starts.
View our guide to tracking your runs and providing evidence for your Great Run Solo challenge.
The Reward
Great South Run Solo
Complete the challenge and you’ll be rewarded with a very special Great South Run Solo medal! Now that’s worth running ( a long way) for!
What You
Get
The Great South Run Solo medal is glorious on its own (pictured), but it’s been cleverly designed to combine with the Great South Run medal to form a supercharged medal.
Your challenge fee also includes access to our online run tracker to monitor your progress through training – accessible from the start of your challenge – and support throughout the challenge.
Note: For international runners, there is an additional £3.50 charge to cover medal postage.
Challenge Extras
Over the course of the 8 weeks we will set additional tasks to keep you moving and motivated. From snapping a selfie at the top of your city’s biggest hill to running backwards for 1 minute, we’ll set you a series of challenge extras over the course of the 8 weeks to keep you on your toes!
