Multisportscanada launches app-supported Run Series

Multisportscanada is proud to announce the inaugural New Era Run Series 2020. Three weekends of virtual racing allowing runners to create their own race route while competing against others in real-me. Races are split into varying distances, making it perfect for runners of all ages and abilities.

The New Era Run Series combines the best of the real-world and the virtual world using the new OpenRace iPhone app. Race participants download the OpenRace app (currently available for iPhone only) which will provide updates through audio cues on their position, pace, distance, and me during the race. Official race results will be posted after each event.

Making Virtual Races seem REAL

The New Era Run Series comes in response to the ever-changing needs of runners driven by competition while keeping safety top of mind.

“Having organized races for over twenty years, I know that people are missing the connection and competition in-person racing creates. I wanted to create a virtual race which will encourage runners to continue training and compete in real-me against others in a safe environment” said Trevor Soll, Owner of Multisportscanada. “It’s a ‘virtual’ real race that athletes from across the country and around the world can take part in. No one will be running alone.”

The New Era Run Series events are open to runners of all ages and abilities, with distances ranging from 5KM to 42.2KM. There are three weekends of racing taking place on November 29 , December 6 and December 13 , 2020. To participate, register at http://www.neweraraces.com/
