Challenge: Beat me (The Machine), earn points, and a black buff/snood (made from recycled bottles)!

What Makes This Challenge Special?

🎯 Personalised Targets: Always very achievable and based on your results. I evolve with you. It’s like having a personal running coach - minus the awkward small talk.

🔝 Inclusivity: Beginners and experienced runners compete on equal terms.

♻️  Sustainability: No cheap medals or fossil-fuelled travel. Just motivation and achievement.

Step 1 - Enter & Receive:

Receive your target time: 1500 Metres first.

Optional: Buy a quality technical running t-shirt on entry.

Step 2 - Race & Submit:

Choose your terrain: Local streets, treadmill, or another race.

✅ Beat The Machine: If you outpace me, you’ll earn a respectable 1 point.

🔥 Crush The Machine: 1.5 points (Fire emoji-worthy!)

🤖 Robot Shuffle: If you complete your distance but fail to beat me, you still get a consolation 0.5 points.

Submit your result. Then added to the detailed Race The Machine Times & Results Table
