How it works

Run or walk an accumulative 700 miles (1126.54 km) and earn the limited edition Pop Art medal inspired by Andy Warhol. Some ways to get 700 miles done:

  • Keep adding miles after you get past your 300 or 500 mile challenge!
  • Log seven 100 mile months.
  • Run 20 miles a week for 35 weeks.
  • Do a run streak of at least 2 miles per day for 350 days.
  • What matters is you challenge yourself and go the distance.
  • Signing up with a running partner makes it even more fun!

You can track your progress using our online Run Tracker and unlock cool digital badges and levels. The medal will ship out in 5-6 weeks. It could take longer to reach you depending on where you live.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can we order as a group?

  • Yes, this will save on shipping. One person will need to place the order for the whole group. Just select the quantity you want at checkout and the medals will be sent to the same address. Then forward the emails you get from us to the other runners so they will have all the appropriate links and instructions. No need to officially “register” each person separately at check out.

Do you ship outside the USA?

  • Yes! We ship anywhere in the world. The cost of shipping outside the USA is unfortunately not as cheap (we don’t make any money from the shipping). Many runners are joining with their running partners to share the cost of shipping. It costs about the same amount to send 1 medal as it does 2-4 medals in the same package. Just select the quantity you want at checkout and the medals will be sent to the same address. Then forward the emails you get from us to the other runners so they will have all the appropriate links and instructions. No need to officially “register” each person separately at check out. Please be aware that due to Covid the international shipping is slow right now. If you live in the UK or EU your package will be delayed by your government until they collect VAT from you.

How do I complete the 700 miles?

  • We are trying to keep it simple. Run or walk a total of 700 miles, take as many days as you need. You can keep track of your miles (you are free to use the online run tracker we created but not required). The medal will be shipped out even if you don’t track your miles. We use the honor system.

Do I have to start at zero?

  • No. You can count the miles you’ve already run this year. For example, if you have completed the 100, 300, or 500 mile challenges keep adding miles to your existing total. We are challenging people to get to at least 1,000 miles for the year.

How do I report my runs?

  • You may use the super fun Online Run Tracker we created or your preferred tracker (Garmin, Strava, MapMyRun, Nike, etc.). *Note: reporting your miles is not mandatory since we use the honor system.

Cancellation/Refunds

  • Unfortunately we cannot offer a refund for this event. Since we immediately spend the money on purchasing the medal and shipping, all sales are final.

When will my medal arrive?

  • The medal(s) will be shipped out from a USA based facility in 5-6 weeks. It could take longer to reach you depending on where you live. Please be aware that if you live outside the USA it could take an extra couple months to reach you. We’ve found that due to Covid the international shipping is slow right now.

Is there a special Facebook group for this event?

  • The 700 Mile Challenge uses the “Social Distancing” Run Facebook group which has over 16,000 members and a very active community. It’s a great place to share photos, results, and see what other runners are up to.
