Registration Now Open!

Register Today
With the soul-sucking heat fully upon us, it’s time to put down the TV remote and snack foods and start a different kind of BINGE.  
Summertime Binge is back and better than ever!  The 2021 rendition of Summertime Binge will offer participants a variety of challenge lengths, a variety of event-length challenges, and a variety of amazing daily challenges, all of which will be supported by daily video content to give YOU, the participant, the ultimate Binge experience!
Oh, and that isn’t all!  This year Summertime Binge will be a family affair as we are offering our brand new Kids Binge event!  Any kids 15 and under can register for this event, which is designed to encourage kids to get outside and move over the summer.  The Kids Binge will come with youth style event shirts and finisher medals!  So get outside as a family and get your fitness on this summer!
Register by June 25th to ensure your race packet ships before the start of the race.  Any participant who registers after that date will have their packet ship 10 business days after the event finishes.

10-Day Fixed Time Event


Why fixed-time? A Fixed-time event allows runners to run, walk, hike, and explore the possibility of any distance.  What distance have you always dreamt of? A marathon? An ultra? Beyond 100 miles? This virtual fixed time event offers you the chance to race against the clock to adventure beyond any set distance and keep going until the very last second. If you've only ever run a 5K, imagine what you an do with six hours on the clock!
The beauty of this event is that you get to choose your journey.  You can choose to run for hours or for days, but regardless you get to "run as you please" to accumulate as many miles as you can throughout the 10 days. Set a goal and give yourself the gift of time to achieve it. Whether you choose to run six hours or six days, keep track of your progress throughout the week and share each milestone with us @AravaipaVirtual #SummertimeBinge
Summertime Binge 10-Day celebrates your time and how you invest that time to create, motivate, and inspire yourself and others! Let's stay connected this summer as we aim to challenge and  encourage each other this season!

If you are someone who wants to push themselves to a single effort, or a single day challenge, then we have just the events for you. Choose from a 6, 12, or 24 hour effort to see how many miles you can rack up in that time frame! 
Looking for a big, multi-day adventure?  Well we have just the treat for you! Choose from any of our multi-day races-- 3 Day, 7 Day, or 10 Day, to push yourself over the course of the event.

A Family Affair: Introducing The 2021 Kids Binge!

Image
New to the 2021 Summertime Binge event is the offering of a KIDS Binge!  Yep, that is right, Kids who are 15 years old or younger are able to sign up for their very own 3D, 7D, or 10D event.  Registration will include a KIDS Binge medal and a Youth Size Event Tee.
This makes for the perfect opportunity to get outside as a family and get your fitness on together!  This will give kids something to look forward to this summer and can be a great way to keep them entertained and engaged with exercise.  
Lastly, this is a great opportunity for any kids participating in middle school or high school cross-country in the fall to stay on top of their training over those hot summer months in a fun and engaging way!

Experience The BINGE

As with all Aravaipa Virtual races, our main goal is to create a participant experience that is  second to none.  For Summertime Binge, we offer that experience in a number of ways by offering both event-long challenges like the Evolution and the 24H Binge, as well as fun daily challenges.  Additionally, our Kids Binge option helps make this an experience the whole family can enjoy! The entire event is supported by daily (weekdays only)  livestreams where we will take a look at the leaderboards, share the daily challenge winners, and follow along everyone's journey on Instagram!  All of this is sure to keep you entertained during your 10-day fitness bender!

THE EVOLUTION: A 100+ Mile Challenge that demands just a little more each day! Runners who want to complete the Evolution will end up with 110 total miles of the course of 10 days--that's 110% amazing! Starting with just two miles on the first day, runners will increase their total distance by adding two more miles. That's it. Just two more miles...every day...more than the day before.

It looks like this: Day 1= 2 Miles; Day 2 = 4 Miles; Day 3 = 6 Miles...adding two more miles to the previous day's total to equal 110 Miles in 10 days! Sounds easy enough, right?   

Image
THE 24 HOUR BINGE: A challenge for those insomniacs in training! This challenge calls to those who can't get enough--this is an 'every episode in one day' kind of challenge. 1x1x24: At least one mile, for every hour, for 24 hours. Be warned, this challenge is much tougher than it seams! Can you hang for a 24 hours?
Image
THE SUMMER STREAK: "We're going streaking!" Kick off your summer staycation with a 10 day run streak! The Summer Streak challenges runners to challenge themselves over the course of 10 days.  If you have never run an ultra-marathon, run at least 3 miles a day every day for 10 days! The minimum would see you to a 50K! Maybe that just isn't enough for you.  Well, if you can knock out 10K (6.24 miles) every day, you would end up having run 100K over the course of the 10 day event! Of course you don't have to stop when the event ends...let this challenge inspire your to keep going and get your streak on 'erryday. 
Image
Every day throughout the course of our 10-Day Summertime Binge  event, we will be offering a unique challenge to help bring some fun and energy to your Summertime adventures. The list of daily challenges can be found below, and will be detailed during the previous days live show (more on that to come), ensuring that most runners know about the daily challenge prior to starting the next days run. Winners of each daily challenge will receive a prize, and will be announced on the following days livestream. Some of the challenges may require some fun and creative planning to successfully complete. The challenge timeline can be found below, but you will have to tune into our daily livestreams to find out the details of each challenge!
