During this pandemic, we’ve become so used to going online for everything. Meetings, fitness classes, shopping, events… the list goes on.
From 7th – 20th September 2020, Skechers will be joining in the virtual fun with their Friendship Walk 2020. Instead of doing the walk on-site, you’ll be clocking in the KMs from the comforts of the gym or your neighbourhood park. With prizes like vouchers and a year’s supply of shoes all lined up, even the most fitness-averse people would want to join in.
Here are all the deets to take note of:
Just like any other walk or run, you’ll first need to sign up via their website. Participation is completely FOC – but you might want to register ASAP, as you can pick up additional event merchandise like the finishers’ medal and T-shirt at lower prices.
These are the dates to keep in mind:
After registering, you’ll receive a personalised e-BIB, which you’re free to post on any of your social media platforms.
As the Skechers walk is split into categories of 3KM, 5KM, and 10KM, you can pick the distance that you’re most comfortable with. Multiple submissions are allowed throughout the entire duration, which you can submit via the website – do feel free to submit as many entries as you like.
Exercising is hard work, and to reward you for your effort, Skechers has a ton of prizes all lined up.
Here’s the kicker: all participants will stand a chance to score a whole year’s supply of Skechers shoes – that’s 12 pairs worth a retail price of $1,200! Only one lucky winner will take this prize home – the winner will be chosen at random from any category.
That’s not the only prize up for grabs. By posting your fitness stories onto the 42Race app (iOS, Android), 5 lucky winners will also stand a chance to win the Inspiration Award and snag a pair of Skechers’ signature series a la the GoWalk Smart shoes ($109-$119) each.
If you ever need a comfy pair of shoes to accompany you on your walks, these ones are the perfect option. The soft cushioning combined with the Air Cooled Goga Mat™ breathable insole lets your feet breathe, while simultaneously making you feel like you’re walking on a cloud.
Additionally, social media-savvy peeps will be glad to know that there’s a tag-share-win contest to score from as well. Keep your eyes peeled for posts on 42Race’s Facebook or Instagram accounts – there’ll be a total of 5 posts each, and you’ll need to tag 3 pals on each post. Who knows – you might be one of 20 winners of a pair of $20 Skechers vouchers.

But even if you don’t win these prizes, no worries. All participants will earn a 30% off voucher to be used on the Skechers Go Walk series, a 1-for-1 voucher for any pair of Skechers shoes, as well as an e-certificate and e-badge as a token of your participation.
If you or your family have been skimping on your workouts these past few months, perhaps the Skechers Online Friendship Walk 2020 will inspire you all to kickstart your exercise regimen again.
Take note – the walk is held between 7th – 20th September 2020, but registration is already open. For early bird prices on their event merchandise, sign up anytime between now and 6th August 2020. If not, you can still register before 18th September 2020.
