ACKTrails is FREE and available in the App Store and Google Play. How will I be timed? You can use a mobile app of your choosing. Some popular apps include Strava, Mapmyrun, Runkeeper, and others. Once you have run, follow the link with your registration and enter in your time, and upload a screenshot of your time. Results will be posted after the race window has closed. We will send you instructions on how to upload your results before race window opens. When can I run? As this is a Virtual Race, you can run anytime between July 9th and July 11th, 2021.
