The Challenge - Orca Bun Runners in Action

A Note on Health and Safety

First and foremost, your health and safety are of the utmost important. If you cannot get your mile done safely outside during the night hours, use a treadmill, or find a one-mile workout on YouTube and have fun stepping it out in the safety of your home. 

Also, one mile every hour may not seem like much, but you will become fatigued as time progresses. And if you're in the South? That heat is no joke, so stay hydrated and in the shade! Only you know what your body can do.

At no time should you risk your health or safety. Okay? Okay 😊💙🐋.

24-Hour Challenge

If you choose to do this challenge, you'll be asked to run (or walk!) one mile every hour on the hour for 24 hours. Ask your friends and family to sponsor a mile and direct them to send donations directly to Save Our wild Salmon (link here:  Support SOS' work to restore healthy rivers and salmon abundance). Some will want to give you the money directly. We strive for transparency, so if they do, please donate via the link above and send them a screenshot of the donation.

Next year, OBR should be official as a nonprofit, and donations will be done via a few clicks on this website. Until then, we thank you for working towards conservation efforts with us, and for making the run another successful one this year.

6-Hour Challenge

If you still want to participate, but 24 miles accumulated over 24 hours is not on your radar right now, please consider participating for a quarter of the time! Same concept--you'll ask your friends and family to sponsor a mile in the ways specified above. 

Remember, it all counts!

And at the end of the day, er, night, the Southern Resident killer whales are facing extinction, so we run for them.
