The run is 157 hard miles of up and downhill climbs and twists and turns. We will be running on back roads for the safety of the runners. The run will pass through a number of cities and towns along the way to Blacksburg. The participants in the run are the brothers of the Virginia Tech and University of Virginia Chapters of Phi Gamma Delta. Each runner will run anywhere from one mile to three miles at a time along the way. The runners will be carried the length of the route by a tour bus which will load and unload runners as needed. Advertisements for sponsors will be on the sides of the bus, as well as on the jerseys worn by the runners. The run will take two days. We will leave Virginia Tech exactly twenty four hours before the scheduled starting time of the UVA vs. VT football game. The game is currently scheduled for November 19th. The run will end with the presentation of the game ball at Scott Stadium in Charlottesville. This presentation has a time frame in which it must happen before the game and we have built in checkpoints during the run to chart our progress and make sure that we are on schedule. There will also be a check presentation before the game where a representative from The V Foundation will accept the money raised from the run.
