What is the Nike+ Human Race?
Last year Nike hosted the world’s largest running event with nearly
780,000 participants. This year, the Nike+ Human Race is back on
October 24. This 10K run will once again celebrate the sport of running
and give participants everywhere the chance to run together with others
around the globe. Nike is hosting runs in more than 30 cities around
the world, but with nikeplus.com, every city and every road can become
a race day course. By combining the virtual running world with the
physical, the Nike+ Human Race is open to anyone, anywhere.
Why did Nike decide to organize this event?
The Nike+ Human Race is a celebration of runners and their sport. By
using tools that we’ve created like nikeplus.com and the Nike+
SportBand, runners can participate anywhere: a country road, an urban
sidewalk or in one of the more than 30 cities hosting a run this year.
Our goal is to connect runners with each other.
What is the main goal of the event?
The main goal for the Nike+ Human Race is to celebrate runners and
their sport while connecting them through a worldwide physical and
virtual running event.
What makes the Nike+ Human Race different from any other 10k run?
The Nike+ Human Race reaches a large participant base with a global
scope all on the same day. We’ve created access points in cities all
over the world while also bringing the event to every runner virtually
through nikeplus.com.
Where will it be held?
The Nike+ Human Race will be held anywhere a registered Nike+ runner
chooses to hit the pavement.
With the help of Nike+ and the Nike+ SportBand, every city and every road can become a race-day course. For more information, visit nikeplus.com.
