Virtually race from the top of Cadillac and over the rest of the 26 peaks of Acadia National Park. Jump across the Atlantic to Paris and virtually race the debut course for the Olympic racewalking marathon mixed relay. See the Eiffel Tower during this first-ever international segment of the Acadia to Katahdin Virtual Race!
Next, to keep with the French theme, virtually scale Mount Lafayette in New Hampshire's White Mountain National Forest to mark the 200th anniversary of Marquis de Lafayette's victorious return to the United States as the last surviving major general of the American Revolutionary War. This is 1 of 6 peaks on the Appalachian Mountain Club's New England Four Thousand Footer list you'll be climbing in this race, at just 8 feet lower in elevation than Katahdin's Baxter Peak, the highest in Maine.
End the NH segment by paying your respects at the Old Man of the Mountain Historic Site - then go west virtual racers!
Head to Death Valley in California as it celebrates its 30th anniversary of becoming a National Park, and on to Craters of the Moon National Monument and Preserve in Idaho as it celebrates its Centennial.
Then come on back to Maine, tour Katahdin Woods and Waters National Monument, virtually run the Millinocket Marathon & Half, and climb the 3 peaks of Baxter State Park that make the cut of the AMC's NE Four Thousand Footer list. Finish atop Katahdin, the state's highest peak.
Maine - the way life should be, in real life or virtually!
Earn a customized medal (or two+) - your choice of 2 medals, to be paired with one of 11 ribbon options. Plus you have the option to add a lobster or moose patch - or both!
And you can order special coasters featuring the 26 peaks of Acadia, the 3 peaks of Baxter on AMC's NE Four Thousand Footer list or the work of Maine artist SKong. Also available: These same images in the form of 4"x4" magnets.
See medal and ribbon options, coasters and magnets at the top of the page here. Or scroll down to see thumbnail photos.
Help raise funds for Acadia National Park and Millinocket, the gateway to Katahdin, as well as for the non-profit National Parks Traveler, whose motto is "Essential Coverage for Essential Places."
Details of the 8-segment, 239.4-mile course:
Start atop Cadillac, the first place to see the sun rise in the USA between Oct. 7 and March 6, and virtually climb all 26 peaks of Acadia on Mount Desert Island in the first 59 miles of this virtual race.
Then hop across the Atlantic to the Paris Olympics marathon route, which also serves as the debut course for the racewalking marathon mixed relay as an Olympic event.
Return to the States to honor Marquis de Lafayette and the Old Man of the Mountain, in a 10-mile segment up over 5,260-feet Mount Lafayette, 5,089-feet Mount Lincoln and 4,459-feet Mount Liberty in the White Mountain National Forest, ending at the Old Man of the Mountain Historic Site in NH's Franconia Notch State Park.
Head west for a 67.3-mile tour through Death Valley National Park - too dangerous to hike in real-life in the summer heat after 10 AM, but safe to run, hike and walk it at any time of the day virtually! - as it marks the 30th anniversary of its elevation from National Monument status.
Then jump north to a 14.4-mile segment in Craters of the Moon National Monument in Idaho on the occasion of its Centennial celebration.
Return to Maine for a visit to Katahdin Woods and Waters National Monument, a run of the Millinocket Marathon & Half, and a final marathon-length distance over the 3 peaks of Baxter State Park that are 4000 feet or higher, finishing the 239.4-mile virtual race atop Katahdin's Baxter Peak, the highest in Maine and the northern terminus of the Appalachian Trail.
(This virtual race is not officially affiliated with any real-life races other than having previously been the virtual edition of the Maine Sea to Summit Series co-sponsored by acadiaonmymind.com and runmdi.org. And it is not officially affiliated with any National Parks or Monuments, other than helping to support Friends of Acadia, a partner of Acadia National Park, or with any state parks, the AMC, or the Olympics.)
How to participate:
Wherever you are in the world, you can virtually run, hike or walk and log your miles. Plus there is a dropdown calculator that allows you to convert minutes spent bicycling, swimming, cross-country skiing, doing calisthenics and other activities to a running-walking mileage equivalent.
Watch your avatar move along on a map from Acadia to Katahdin, criss-crossing the map, jumping from segment to segment. Get pop-up Google Street Views where available as you land on spots along the virtual race map. Click on red pindrops near where you land on the map to find out fun facts. Invite family and friends to join no matter where they are - a perfect way to keep up and explore America's parks, virtually.
You have until 11:59 PM EST on December 31, 2024, to complete the segments. You can backdate miles to July 1, 2024, but log them one day at a time chronologically to get the maximum virtual race experience.
New option to put in your hometown upon registration, so that your avatar starts off in your state of residence before you log your first miles in Acadia. Also new: The option to synch with Strava, but remember to also log your comments directly in Racery so that the non-Strava virtual racers can keep up with what you're up to.
To ensure you cross the finish line and to take into account any mileage rounding issues, be sure to log a few extra tenths of a mile. And if you opted in for special finisher's medal(s), coasters or magnets, they will be mailed upon conclusion of the race.
Everyone is a winner, with medals, coasters and magnets mailed soon after December 31, whether you completed the segments by then or not. Mileage from this race and future races will count toward cumulative totals, allowing you to reach special milestones and recognition. Details of the Acadia to Katahdin Virtual Racing Hall of Fame to be announced at acadiaonmymind.com/virtual-races
At least 5% of gross proceeds from the race go to help support Acadia National Park via the nonprofit Friends of Acadia, Millinocket via the nonprofit Millinocket Memorial Library, and National Parks Traveler.
We've got racers all over the globe! To keep everyone on the same page, we've come up with some handy guidelines:

We've got racers all over the globe! To keep everyone on the same page, we've come up with some handy guidelines:
- We rely on the honor system... you don't have to use a device to prove your miles -- a good map suffices.
- Please only backdate mileage to the start of this race, or July 1, 2024.
- No step counting, please use intentional miles.
- Walking or running miles are the default activity, with other activities like bicycling in the activity dropdown menu! (NOTE: miles on a racer’s personal log are for all races they are in, over all sports)
- Please attribute your mileage to the appropriate day -- don’t combine mileage from multiple days.
- Miles submitted after the race ends will not count toward race leaderboards.
