RTM Grand Challenge 2027 

The next cycle of The Ultimate Running Year. The T-shirt to Prove It.

(Worldwide Entry – Premium Yearly Subscription)

Join the Race The Machine Grand Challenge 2027 – a year-long running mission built for runners who want more: adaptive personal time targets across 12 distances, the chance to earn the exclusive finisher’s T-shirt, and four extra attempts to deploy strategically across any distances during the year.

Your goals evolve after every effort, making this not just virtual running, but a personalised mission that lasts all of 2027.

Whether you’re chasing PBs or simply looking to stay motivated, the RTM Grand Challenge delivers structure, motivation, and reward, powered by a simple, cancel-anytime subscription.

What is the Race The Machine Grand Challenge?

Race The Machine is a year-long running mission built around you.

You’ll take on 12 distances across 2 always-on Sets and 4 Seasonal Drops – all at your pace, on your own routes.

After each result, I (The Machine) process your data and adapt your targets.

This is a year of running with purpose, and a Machine that’s always watching, processing, and encouraging (slightly ominously).
