Natural running food maker RUNIVORE announced the Runivore Dream Race, which offers runners from around the world a chance to win a running vacation that includes participation in the Tarawera Ultra Marathon at Lake Tarawera, New Zealand.
Every runner dreams of running and racing at beautiful locations, but not all of us have the time and resources. But now, all you have to do is make a running-related video that’s under 2 minutes, share it and get a chance to win a once-in-a-lifetime running trip to Tarawera, New Zealand, travel, accommodation and race entry expenses paid for by Runivore. The video can be about road running or trail running. It can be educational, dramatic, humorous, action-packed, artistic, etc. Just make it entertaining, meaningful and running related.
Runivore will be sending the winner to participate in the Tarawera Ultra Marathon in New Zealand in February 2017. Lake Tarawera is the largest of a series of lakes, which surround the volcano Mount Tarawera in the North Island of New Zealand. Like the mountain, it lies within the Okataina caldera. Part of the Ultra-Trail Series, the race is a point-to-point run from Rotorua to Kawerau. The majority of the run is on singletrack trails through native bush or forestry roads with less than 2% being on a sealed public road. Depending on the winner’s running level, 62km, 82km, 100km or relay options are available.
To reward even more passionate runners, veino-muscular compression technology company COMPRESSPORT and world-renowned running shoe maker HOKA ONE ONE have also generously offered their great products as prizes.
“Good things happen when people go outside and be active. This is a fun and meaningful competition, and we hope to inspire people to live healthier and happier,” said Jason Chiu, Hoka One One Taiwan Brand Manager.
“The running community is one of the friendliest and most inspiring circles I have ever been part of, and the Runivore Dream Race is a great way to get runners from around the world to share their stories and motivate each other,” said Joe Wu, representative of Compressport Taiwan.
