Hi there, thanks for taking part in LTAW 2024’s virtual walk!
The virtual categories are not “virtual” – please don’t walk around in your VR headset. It’s our way of offering you the opportunity to participate in LTAW wherever you are, at your own time, clocking your distance over as many walks as you need.
Virtual walk submission:
Submit Your Virtual Walk
When: Complete and submit your walk/s between Sunday 20 October 0000hrs and Friday 1 November 2359hrs.
How: Track your outdoor walks via any GPS-enabled app, including the distance covered.
You will need your:
Registration ID (You can find this in the email you got when you signed up, with the subject line “LTAW registration received”. The ID should look like “324_02” or “BD_01”)
The distance you’ve walked
A screenshot of your walk (any GPS-enabled exercise tracking app, e.g. Strava, that shows the distance, date and time)
