The virtual 5km run

MIGROS RUN

A woman jogs through the forest with Michael Elsener

As additional motivation for all those who love running, we'll be holding a prize draw every Wednesday and giving away ten Migros gift cards, each worth CHF 50, as well as a special prize. All those who finish the virtual MIGROS RUN on the viRACE app will be entered in the draw.

Humorous running companion

Well-known comedian Michael Elsener and his celebrity running group will accompany and motivate you via headphones from start to finish during your 5km. Running and laughing at the same time: what could be more motivating?

It’s so easy to take part:

  1. Install the viRACE app: Apple, Android

  2. Register with MIGROS RUN

  3. Select other participants for a direct comparison using the favourites function

  4. Lace up your running shoes on Wednesday and launch the viRACE app

  5. Start the warm-up to activate the countdown to the race

  6. Once the countdown is complete, set off when you hear the virtual starting signal and enjoy the five-kilometre race

  7. Give yourself a pat on the back after completing the race and listen to the two commentators in the app to find out if you’re one of the winners

  8. Repeat steps 2 to 7 next Wednesday
