Valentines Gin Run Virtual Challenge

Roses are red, violets are blue, we love to drink gin and occasionally run too.

Show your love for gin (and running) by joining Secret London Runs virtual Valentines Day Gin Run.

Wherever you are in the world, run 5k, 10k, half marathon or marathon from your front door on any date from Monday 8th until Sunday 14th February 2021, then celebrate at the end with the gin you love the most. Prizes for the most romantic finish-line photos of you and your gin.

Solo or couples entry. For couples you compete as a team to cover the distance. Join with your partner, or (even better) your gin buddy! Intersecting medals for couples entry.

Choose your distance and book your place.

Just £16 with early bird (solo entry) or £29.95 for a couple.

£19.50 (solo) and £39 from 1st February 2021

Valentines is all about the number 2, so for this event we have created a special team entry where you work together to earn your gin and medal. Your 'team captain' will sign you up for either a 10k, half or full marathon, then split the distance between you however you like. We'll then send you each a special interconnecting medal.

Share this event with the person in your life who loves gin just as much as you do - do the distance then celebrate immediately with your favourite G&T.

Choose your team distance and book your place.

Just £29.95 with early bird (team entry).

FAQs

How to upload your race results, enter our romantic finish-line photo competition & more

What happens if I want to change my distance?

We order our medals before the start of the event by estimating the number of medals we need based on previous events. This allows us to offer low early bird prices and that also you aren't waiting for weeks and weeks after the event to finish to receive your medal. Unfortunately it does also mean, however, that we are unable to allow changes to medal distances. We want you to do what you feel comfortable doing on the day. You'll still get a medal, it will just be the medal that you signed up for when booking. You can always complete the miles at a later date if you need to.

What happens if I need to isolate?

Don't worry, we'll still post out your medal. Do the distance when it is safe for you to do so.

How do I prove I did the distance?

You can upload the evidence of your race (a screenshot of your GPS, or photo of your watch) into Njuko using the link and instructions in your race confirmation email. It is not vital that you do this, we trust that you'll do the distance, but all adds to the fun.

How do I enter the best finish line picture competition?

We'll be giving away spot prizes for the best and most romantic finish line photos of you and your gin. You can share your finish-line photo in the Secret London Runs Connect Facebook group. The team will judge all entries and reveal the winners shortly after the event finishes.

Where do I download my race bib?

You can download your race bib in Njuko (our ticketing platform) using the link and instructions in your race confirmation email so you can print it at home.

SPOT PRIZES

To add to the fun, we give a number of spot prizes to participants as they sign up!

1st, 2nd, 5th, 6th,14th and 69th person/pair to sign up - A pink MAY CONTAIN GIN Buff

FANTASTIC VIRTUAL EVENTS

"I did the Virtual Gin Run in June and had a blast. I love the very supportive community and it was so much fun to see all the other finisher pics. Never thought that doing virtual events could be that much fun."

MOTIVATIONAL COMMUNITY OF SECRET LONDON RUNNERS

"Since lockdown for COVID-19 started in March 2020 in the UK, I feared for my exercise options. Secret London Runs has stepped up to the challenge to engage and challenge the community. I’ve taken part in several virtual themed 5k and 10k runs, which are well organized with medals and gear sent via the post, and a fantastic Facebook group to share pics and stories."
