Intro: Here’s what “Javelina Jallucinations Event Launch 2022” from Aravaipa Running is all about. Everything you need to get started is covered here. The full video has more details and exclusive merch.
Key points:
- The challenge runs for 31 days with a 100-mile target (feel free to exceed it).
- Registration is open now. The first 250 sign-ups get limited-edition glow-in-the-dark sunglasses.
- You collect badges at each milestone: 20-mile loop, 40-mile, 60-mile, 80-mile, 100-mile, plus stretch marks at 200, 300, and 500 miles.
- Weekly Misfit Games add spice: “Hot Start” (three consecutive days of running), “Summit Selfie”, “Loop Repeats” (run a 1-mile section repeatedly), and a GPS-Art challenge.
- Community is central. Log your miles on RunSignUp, share updates on Instagram @aravaiparunning, and tag the event.
Workout example:
- Week 1, Hot Start: three runs of 5 miles each (15 mi total). Log every one.
- Week 2, Summit Selfie: pick a local peak and do a hill repeat (2 mi up, 2 mi down) three times. That’s about 12 miles.
- Week 3, Loop Repeats: find a 1-mile loop and run as many laps as you can in 30 minutes (aim for 8-10 laps, roughly 10 mi).
- Week 4, GPS-Art: run a shape on the map (a “V”, heart, or similar) for about 8 miles.
- Remaining days: work toward 100 miles with steady runs, badge targets, and whichever challenges sound good.
Closing note: Want to reach 100 miles and grab those badges? Register, use the Pacing app to set your targets, and go. Show up consistently and lean on the community energy. Watch the full video for more strategy tips and merch info.
