About This Activity

What is the Voyage to Venus?

Have you ever wanted to run in space? Now is your chance.  Moon Joggers is looking for 25,000 runners (walkers and joggers too) to join our challenge this year and help us run enough miles to get to Venus!  It is a 25 million mile journey and our crew of 25,000 will commit to run, on average, 1000 each in 2014! Each individual will commit to a specified amount of miles and will move up the rankings in our crew as they log more and more miles. Some will set the goal to run 100 miles this year, while our ultra runners will commit to run 4,000 or even more miles!  If you are looking for motivation, competition, friendship, inspiration or all of the above, join us now! Space is limited, the first 25,000 people to register will be on our 2014 crew. Sign up now.

Official Launch Date is January 1, 2014

Sign up and set a personal goal for which ranking you will achieve in one year. Below is a list of rankings for our Voyage.  As you log your running and walking miles you’ll see yourself move up  in the rankings:
