My Virtual Mission Adds Route 66 To Virtual Fitness Series

Fitness tracker app My Virtual Mission added one of the more iconic U.S. highways to its Conqueror Event Series on Monday.

This week, fitness enthusiasts can now sign-up via web, iOS or Android apps for the 2,280-mile Route 66 Virtual Challenge. They’ll eventually be able to log mileage by running, walking, cycling, or other forms of exercise as they virtually traverse across the country, hitting historic landmarks such as Cadillac Ranch or the Hollywood sign in the process.

“This challenge is a perfect opportunity for those looking for a little more motivation in their fitness routine for the New Year, and those trying to keep a New Year’s resolution going” Conqueror Event Series founder Adam El-Agez said in a statement.
