The game is called the “run until” challenge. The trick is: You can’t stop until you find whatever the challenge requires.
Long said she likes that when her followers give her a run-until goal, she doesn’t know where her run will take her or how long it will last. She admits it doesn’t always work out.“Sometimes, if I reach 10 miles, I say that’s it. I can’t find the thing,” she said.
Long said she always carries extra food and water. And, the premise of the game — to spot something as you’re running — has forced her to slow down and appreciate whatever she’s passing by.Laura Green, 36, a former collegiate runner who now posts comedy sketches about the sport on Instagram, said she’s “found herself entranced” by these run-until challenges because she could experience the views the runner sees, such as the sun peeking over the horizon or fog lifting over a field.
“You’re taking a sport where people are just so rigid about their routine and what it takes to be a runner and you’re making it fun,” Green said. For anyone interested in trying out a version of the run-until challenge, both Long and Pratt cautioned that people shouldn’t run farther than they’ve trained for. And “be creative,” Pratt said.
“If something says run until you see a unicorn, don’t be afraid to look in the clouds,” he said. “You don’t want to run out too far and end up lost.”
