About the event
Join us in supporting the Long Island Maritime Museum by participating in our first annual Maritime Miler Virtual Challenge! Choose from one of the following 7 fun challenges, get out into the fresh air, and fundraise to support our museum!
Run, walk, bike, roller blade, kayak, paddle, or swim (or any combination) anywhere, anytime from May to November 2021 to complete your challenge. Choose a single day event (5K or Half Marathon), commit to a longer challenge, or take on both!
Our virtual challenge is also an educational journey! Earn virtual badges and unlock fun facts about historic places as you hit distance milestones along the way! Do you know how many lighthouses there are in New York State? Are you familiar with the importance of US Life Saving Service stations? Learn all about these crucial facets of maritime history on your virtual journey.
Miles done on workout equipment do count towards your challenge. Make sure to follow current social distancing precautions as you get fit and give back!
Log your miles on Run Signup. Registration includes an official event T-shirt (MUST register by August 30, 2021). Every completed challenge counts as an entry to a raffle for a free sail aboard Priscilla, our 1888 oyster sloop.
