Announcing a weekly #RunSolo Photo Contest! We’ve been so impressed by all the solo running photos that everyone has been tagging us in on Instragram, and now we are upping the ante with a contest. Here’s how it works:
- Email submissions to
- Every week we’ll choose one winner whose photo will be posted to the Whippets Instagram page.
- Each week, the submission window will open at 12:00 AM Thursday and close at 11:59 PM the following Monday. Winning photos will be posted to the Whippets Instagram every Wednesday. (For our first round, the weekly submission window will open this Thursday, 4/16 and close on Monday 4/20 at 11:59 PM. The winning photo will be posted on Wednesday, 4/22)
- The only person allowed in the photo is you and the only person allowed to take the photo is you. Photos that include other people or that were taken by another person will not be considered.
- Because we miss all your faces, we encourage you to include yourself in the photo (i.e. take a selfie, use the self-timer, etc), but landscape shots will be considered as well. We also welcome photos from all you treadmill and balcony runners.
- When making your submissions, we also encourage you to include/answer the following:
- Name and IG handle (if you have one)
- Photo location
- What have you learned from running solo?
- Any other details about your photo and/or your experience running during the coronavirus pandemic.
