Deadline for SPAR Women’s Virtual Challenge nears

Spring is fast approaching, and there is no better way to celebrate the new season than hitting the road with friends, family and neighbours in the 2021 SPAR Women’s Virtual Challenge set for September 4.

This year’s race is just a month away, and time is running to secure a place on the virtual start line, with online entries set to close on August 15.

The theme for the 2021 edition is #LiveLimitless which aptly fits in with the nature of the virtual.

There are no limits to how entrants can approach the race, whether they want to do it competitively to beat their personal best or make it a fun-filled family activity.

The SPAR Women’s Virtual Challenge is the most inclusive race, allowing people of all shapes and sizes to run or walk at their own pace, from any location.

In addition, the race is geared for Covid-19 times, where the health and safety of South Africans are of primary importance. They can physically distance themselves from other participants as each person can run from any point of their choosing.

The Virtual Challenge has attracted some of the country’s strongest female role models because it promotes a sense of camaraderie among women and promotes a healthy lifestyle.

Among the strong female figures is SPAR Proteas netball captain Bongi Msomi, who has been a friend of the SPAR Women’s Challenge over the years.

Each 2021 SPAR Women’s Virtual Challenge participant will receive a virtual race pack that includes an official virtual challenge T-shirt, access to the My Virtual Challenge digital magazine, a face buff and a medal.
