How it Works
Participants must then download the MyVirtualMission app where they will then have access to the platform where they will be able to see the route and checkpoints for the race as well as track their kms cycled.
Participants will be able to see the leaderboard of teams throughout the week.
Once a team member completes a cycle, they upload what they have completed straight to the app and attach a photo of their recorded distance.
Team members can use their own bike or a bike at the gym, and they can connect their fitness app to the MyVirtualMission app which will automatically record the distance with no need to upload.
THE RACE
Starting in Kinsale Co. Cork, teams will need to cycle 1338 km in 5 days in order to complete the race.
The cycle will take them right around the island, with checkpoints along the way.
There will be daily challenges set to keep participants motivated.
Entry Fee
