The Great EpisGopal Race #EpisGOpalRace


Join us in gratitude and race YOUR way in the Great EpisGOpal Race Virtual Run/Walk to support the 2020 UTO Ingathering. Anytime between July 22 - 31, choose your preferred mode and distance and race to raise money for COVID-19 relief. You can bike a 10K, run a half marathon, or skate a mile—the options are limitless. All of the funds that you help raise will be collected for the 2020 UTO Ingathering and dispersed to ministries responding to the COVID-19 pandemic. Let's race together in gratitude!

With a whole week to complete the event, we ask that you please adhere to all CDC recommended social distancing guidelines, maintain a safe distance from others, and avoid trails and walking paths during peak times.

The registration fee is $15. Upgrade your registration and receive the official Great EpisGOpal Race t-shirt!

There are 3 ways to participate in The Great EpisGOpal Race:


1. Run, walk, or hike 5K, 10K, Half or Full Marathon on (or during the week of) July 25th, be sure to post videos/photos on social media using #EpisGOpalRace.

2. Create a team! Just because we have to socially distance doesn’t mean we can’t work together. Invite some friends to join you and run/walk/hike as a group.

3. Challenge others – if you are so inclined, you (or your team) can invite others to donate towards your race. This is a great way to encourage those that are unable to participate on their own to be a part of the race. You can set a fundraising goal and try to raise more than your friends or another diocesan group!

Use this page to post photos or videos of your accomplishments, words of encouragement to others in the group or share what things you’re grateful for as you participate in the race.

How do I show evidence of completing the race?
 

We're relying on the honor system, but we encourage you to show your evidence (photo of your distance on your watch, treadmill, or fitness app; video or photo of you running/walking, etc.).

When will my shirt and any other prizes be mailed to me?
 

For those that register and order a shirt by July 15, the shirts will be processed on July 16th and shipped. Those that register after July 15th and all prizes will be shipped after the race ends on August 5th.
