When I first heard about the DC Batman Virtual Race, I wanted in cause who doesn't love Batman?! Especially when I knew the race was put on by RAM Racing, their SWAG is always top notch and this race was no exception. The 3/4 Zip is cool and comfy and the tech hat is awesome. Love the medal and we even received a GU Waffle (which, full disclosure, I ate before I technically earned it for my race). SWAG was shipped super quickly and I received it well before I planned to run the race so I could have instant gratification of medal pics!

You were able to chose from 2 different distances, 5K or 10K, so the race is good for those of any level. And the beauty of a Virtual race is you can kind of create your own experience. Want to run it alone, do that. Want to race with friends, get them involved. I had originally planned to race it alone for speed, but a friend asked to join me and lone crusader race became a dynamic duo and I enjoyed it so much more. You had a generous time frame to complete the race (between Sept 1 and Dec 1) and I typically run Virtuals near the end to maximize my training so we ran it on Nov 28. I even synced it up to run at the same time as 2 friends that live outside my area. We texted "Go" at the start and then video chatted after, showing off our medals and swag.

Overall, it was a great event. I highly recommend any of the DC race series events.
