CNMI runners interested in joining the ASICS World Ekiden 2021 have until Nov. 22 to complete the virtual marathon relay event.

Northern Marianas Athletics, which received an email invitation from World Athletes to promote ASICS World Ekiden 2021, said the race can be done by six runners (maximum) and they must be at least 16 years old. They can run separately or in a group from Nov. 10 to 22 with each runner covering between 5 kilometers to 10K distance to complete the 42K required distance. Times can be tracked and recorded via the ASICS Runkeeper or through Apple Watch, Garmin or Fitbit.

Teams that will complete the relay will have a chance to win a trip to the World Athletics Championships 2022 in Oregon in July. World Athletics will randomly select one winner each from Oceania and five other areas. Winners will be announced on Dec. 1. (PR)
