The weather is mild, the sun is shining-- it's time to Spring into Fitness!
Back by popular demand, this challenge encourages employees to run, walk, hike, or bike in this Intel Family Virtual Event. OTF has partnered with Aravaipa Running, a local trail running community in Arizona, to provide employees and their families an opportunity to participate in this fun, interactive, and social virtual event. This week-long challenge allows employees the flexibility to complete their selected distance at a time that works for them. With multiple distances to choose from, Spring into Fitness is ideal for any experience level.
This custom event encourages families and friends to create virtual teams, challenge each other to achieve a goal, and celebrate virtually with each other as you each cross the finish line!
Our goal is to motivate our OTF family to move toward health and wellness and to inspire unity in our company as we move forward together.
We invite you all to join as we Spring into Fitness with this Intel Virtual Event, powered by our amazing family at OTF!
What Is A Virtual Race?
A Virtual Race is like a traditional race but it takes place in a location and time of your choice. You can walk, jog, or run wherever you may be, and at any time during race week for your chosen distance.
Choose Your Place
The great thing about a virtual run is you choose the venue; your favorite park, a tour of downtown, around your neighborhood block, or a new trail you've always wanted to try. This is where you get to be creative. Runners can choose where they start and finish whether it be on road, trail, or treadmill. Wherever and however you want to run the distance, be creative and have fun!
Choose Your Race
Just like registering for a traditional race, you choose the distance that best suits you. Aiming for that first 5K--then grab your friends and go! Challenge your family to a fun summer 10K! Choose your preferred distance below!
- 5 KM
- 10 KM
- Half-Marathon
- 13.1 Mile Bike

- 1K Family Fun Run
Choose Your Pace
You can walk, run, skip, hike, shuffle, or sprint your distance; whatever is comfortable for you. Travel your course at your pace and be sure to take pictures along the way to share!
