There’s Now A Gudetama Virtual Walk Where Even The Laziest Of Eggs Can Take Part In & Win

Gudetama virtual walk October 2021

There’s something innately relatable about Gudetama, the lazy egg icon from Japan. It calls out to the tired souls in us – whether we’re exhausted after long days at work, or overall done with the Covid-19 pandemic.

For those who’ve been feeling idle over the past year, you now have something to look forward to: the Gudetama Eggs-ercise Journey, organised by 42Race. It’s happening from 1st – 31st October 2021, with early bird registration ending at midnight today (15th July 2021). Get your hands on exclusive merch just by taking a leisurely stroll:

Take part in a “marathon” where timing doesn’t matter

Marathons are usually about endurance and speed – a feat for the fit. But with the Gudetama Eggs-ercise Journey, everyone can take part and win.

All you have to do is walk to unlock “egg” checkpoints as you go along:

Stage 1: 3KM
Stage 2: 10KM
Stage 3: 20KM
Stage 4: 50KM

You’ll unlock virtual badges along the way. But even if you don’t manage to hit the minimum of 3KM, you’ll still get your finisher level – so everyone’s a winner.

Here’s how to the virtual walk works:

Register for the Gudetama Eggs-ercise Journey: The entry fee is $39.90 for regular entries, and $29.90 for early bird entries on 15th July 2021.
