Chris Runs America

2027

365 DAYS

ULTRA-MARATHON 50K (31.1 MILES) EVERY DAY

THE PERIMETER OF AMERICA

CHRIS....WHY?

In 2022, Chris challenged himself to run 1 mile every day for 7 days. He kept the streak going and the idea to run a great distance was born and grew until he and his wife landed on running the perimeter of America every day for one year, after a 5 year running streak.

The ultimate mission for one man and his family.
Chris Avery will be running an Ultra-Marathon 50K (31.1 miles) every day of 2027 to complete the perimeter of the United States. He will be raising money to inspire the idea that you can achieve your audacious goals alongside your family.
