▬ About the ASICS World Ekiden 2021 ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
► How many runners can compete on an Ekiden team?
Ekiden teams are traditionally made up of six team members; however, smaller teams can participate in the ASICS World Ekiden 2021. If you choose to run with fewer than six team members, some runners will need to complete multiple legs by registering and joining the team more than once. All six distance spots must be filled and tracked in the ASICS Runkeeper™ app in order to complete the relay.

► How do I track my virtual run and record my results?
Track your Ekiden run in real time using the ASICS Runkeeper™ app. When you're ready to start your leg of the race, open the app on your mobile device, navigate to the Explore tab then Races, select ASICS World Ekiden 2021, and tap "Track race now." Now you're ready to run! Once your distance is completed, hit "Stop" in the Runkeeper™ app and save the run. Your completed leg will automatically be posted to the ASICS World Ekiden 2021 results page.

► I already have the ASICS Runkeeper™ app. Can I register there?
Yes, you can register for the ASICS World Ekiden 2021 directly in the Runkeeper™ app. Navigate to the Explore tab and select Races, then "Register now" for the ASICS World Ekiden 2021 event to complete the registration process from your device. Once completed, your registration will automatically populate in the ASICS World Ekiden 2021 event in the Races tab.

► How do I view my team and track their progress?
You can keep track of your team's progress in the ASICS Runkeeper™ app. Once you're in the app, navigate to the Explore tab and select Races. Tap on ASICS World Ekiden 2021 to view your teammates' current statuses ("completed," "not started" or "in progress").

► How do I view the leaderboard and my team results?
Starting November 11, leaderboard results will be updated in real time here. Results are not official until the race window has closed on November 22, 2020.

► Can I track my Ekiden run while using a fitness tracker or watch?
Yes, your run can be tracked using an Apple Watch, Garmin or Fitbit.

Once completed, in the Runkeeper™ app, navigate to the Explore tab and select "Races." Tap on "ASICS World Ekiden 2021." Select "Link recent activity" under "Track race now." Select your recently completed activity and your results will be posted automatically.

ASICS is enabling everyday athletes all over the world to see, for the first time, the impact of movement on their own mind. Using a combination of facial scanning technology and self-report data collection, people will be able to capture the impact of sport across 10 emotional and cognitive metrics – including confidence, positivity, calm and focus – to see how different sports impact how they think and feel.

▬ About ASICS ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
We’ve always believed in the positive benefits of movement on the body, and the mind. It’s why we’re called ASICS which stands for ‘Anima Sana In Corpore Sano’, or a Sound Mind in a Sound Body. Our founder, Kihachiro Onitsuka, saw that sport had the power to lift spirits, project positivity and propel people and whole communities forward. We still believe this. Which is why all of us are committed to support more people to move for body, and for mind.
