Virtual TTF Race Safety Tips

Complete the legs of your race solo. Do not run or bike with anyone else, unless they live in your household.
If you are completing the legs of your race with someone from your household, run or bike single file, allowing others to pass you easily and safely.
Avoid high traffic pedestrian and vehicle areas. Run, walk or bike close to home in your neighbourhood during a quieter time of day.
Adhere to social distancing practices while you are out completing the legs of your race. Can you safely pass someone? Can you run, walk, bike safely on the road? Make sure you always have a safe way to move around people to maintain 6 feet of distance. **
Complete your run on a treadmill, or your bike on a trainer, if these are options preferable and available to you.
Wear appropriate clothing. Be visible and dress for the weather.
Bring water and/or nutrition if you think you need it. There will be no water / aid stations along the way in a virtual race.
Carry a cell phone with you during your virtual race and te‎ll someone the route you're running or biking in case of an emergency.
Participants choosing to participate in the Virtual TTF do so at their own risk. You are solely responsible for participating in this event in a manner that is in accordance with the most recent and up to date health and safety recommendations of the government and public health authorities in your area.
We encourage all participants to remember that we all have a role to play in stopping the spread of COVID-19, and that anyone choosing to go outside and into their community must take responsibility for doing so in a manner that is safe and responsible.

** Follow the advice of your local public health authority, to help stop the spread of coronavirus.

Where Can I Complete My Virtual TTF Race?

Wherever you are! The joy of competing in a virtual race is that you can start it right outside your front door. Please follow the guidelines outlined by your local government (and local public health authority) regarding running, biking and swimming outdoors to ensure you are keeping yourself and your community safe. For example, follow normal street lights and traffic regulations like any typical solo training run or bike you would do. Your Virtual TTF should be completed solo and not with a partner or a group.
