RWM Virtual Events & Challenges

Run Wild Missoula organizes seven Virtual Events & Challenges each year! It’s highly flexible, so no need to be physically in Missoula to participate in most or to earn sweet swag! Virtual races also give registrants an opportunity to participate in epic trail races that often have cutoff times due to permitting, so you can go at your own pace or piece together the race over time. 

 

Virtual Events are a simple way our members and other participants can learn more about local nonprofits. By highlighting these groups through virtual events, we are uplifting communities while raising money for them. Virtual event overhead is low, so RWM as an organization has the ability to donate 100% of proceeds to the benficiary.
