Choose Your Challenge and make YOUR run YOURS

Your run, your distance, your choice, your way. Make your next run completely yours when you enter the virtual Discovery Vitality Choose Your Challenge. Earn 300 Vitality points every week when you run a minimum of 5 km or 8 000 steps.
You ran 5 Ks in 5 Days. You completed the first-ever virtual Vitality Run Series. Now, you can move even more with the virtual Vitality Choose Your Challenge weekly runs.
It’s your run, your distance, your choice, your way, so make YOUR run YOURS. Here’s how it works.
Make YOUR run YOURS
Whoever you are, wherever you are, you can join us all day for the kick-off run on Saturday, 10 October, 2020 for a different kind of challenge and then every Saturday until Saturday, 31 October, 2020.
Walk, jog, run, or sprint – how long and how far is up to you.
How does it work? When you enter the challenge, you can customise your distance to suit your fitness level by choosing your own challenge. Select your own distance to complete on the day, and voila! You’re ready to run your way to health. PLUS, run a minimum of 5 km or 8 000 steps and you’ll get 300 Vitality points.
