Riverside Historic Landmark Weekly Challenge
These free weekly challenges are open to any participant competing in the 5K, 10K, ½ Marathon, Fun Run or Kids Race events. Each week, a new challenge will be announced to all Mission Inn Run participants with the information necessary to participate.
First challenge to be announced September 25!
How to participate:
Join us in the Riverside Historic Landmark Challenge where we will explore Riverside’s amazing history by highlighting a series of historic buildings and sites central to our city’s development. One of Southern California’s best kept secrets, this history left an array of unique architecture, boulevards, parks, agricultural development, and culture. It’s time to explore your city!
There will be a new challenge each week for six weeks. Each challenge will have five historic sites to find and visit. To complete each challenge, run, walk, bike or otherwise move 1K, anywhere you like, representing one historic site in the challenge, for a total of 5K per challenge per week. Take a selfie or another picture of you and your friends at each historic site and share it on www.missioninnrun.org and your own social media with the hashtag #MissionInnRun. Not in Riverside? You can still meet the challenge by completing the distance component. All challenges can be completed anytime before November 8!
