As of noon June 5, four days after registration started, more than 3,200 people had registered to join the virtual competition.
The registration will be open until July 18, with the race expected to attract about 10,000 runners.
After registration, runners can start running from the next day. The race has four distances – 10 km, 21 km, 42 km, and 100 km – and each runner has 21 days to complete the distance they chose in registration.

After completing the challenge, the runner will receive a virtual certificate and a virtual medal to celebrate the meaningful journey.
