There are thousands of 5K's, 0K's and marathons every year all over the world.  And to participate in one maybe in another country would be your dream.  Now you can without leaving home.

Over the weekend one road race in Massachusetts had thousands of runners participate in Cape Cod and another 100 competed from their homes or a gym.

This is becoming more popular with serious runners and cyclists who want to add to their racing resumes.

Imagine taking a route through Death Valley National Park.  Enjoying the scenery of Tuscany.  Maybe the London Marathon.  All without ever getting on an airplane.
