El 7.87 Challenge – Virtual Race for Puerto Rico

Join us for the inaugural El 7.87 Challenge, a virtual race celebrating Puerto Rican pride, community, and service. Whether you choose the 5K or the signature 7.87K (4.89 miles)—representing Puerto Rico’s iconic 787 area code—every step you take helps make a difference.This event is about more than crossing a finish line. It’s an opportunity to share why you run for Puerto Rico, raise awareness of the communities we serve, and support the Upsilon Foundation’s annual Puerto Rico Service Trip. Proceeds from the race help provide financial assistance to undergraduate students volunteering on the trip, allowing more future leaders to serve, learn, and create lasting impact across the island.Registration is $65 and includes:- Official El 7.87 Challenge race shirt- Custom finisher medal - Shipping to your home While the race is virtual and can be completed anywhere, we’ll also organize optional community meetups for participants who want to run together in New York City, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, California, Illinois, and Colorado. Additional meetup locations may be added based on participant interest.Run where you are. Run with purpose. Run for Puerto Rico.
