Nike+ Human Race 2009

Today NIKE opens registration for the Nike+ Human Race 2009, a 10k worldwide running event. Nike-hosted Human Race events will be held in more than 24 cities from New York City to Los Angeles, Buenos Aires to Rome. Through Nikeplus.com, however, every city and every road can become a race day course. By combining the virtual running world with the physical, the Nike+ Human Race is open to anyone, anywhere. This multi-city event will take place on October 24, 2009.

Race registration opened August 18 on Nikeplus.com. By registering, runners will be able to participate in one of several Nike-hosted events or choose to run where they are on race day. The “Run Where You Are” option allows runners to run anywhere on race day by using the Nike+ iPod Sport Kit and logging a 10k run that day. Members of Nikeplus.com can also take advantage of online training tools and experience the full depth of the Nike+ community, which already reaches close to 2 million runners worldwide.
