Procam Virtual Slam Guidelines
● The Procam Virtual Slam is a year-long recognition and achievement programme introduced by Procam International Pvt. Ltd. to encourage sustained participation in its feature virtual races across India. The initiative aims to recognise runners who demonstrate consistency, commitment and perseverance by successfully completing the feature virtual race category of all four Procam events consecutively.
● Participants who fulfil all eligibility requirements of the Procam Virtual Slam shall be awarded the exclusive Procam Virtual Slam Medal, which will be awarded only upon successful completion of all four feature virtual races within the prescribed cut-off timings. The medal shall be unique to the Procam Virtual Slam and shall serve as recognition of the participant's successful completion of the entire series. The Procam Virtual Slam Medal will be couriered to the runner’s registered postal address (mentioned at the time of registration) within 30 days of completing the last Procam Virtual Slam to the address mentioned at the latest registration form. Any change in the address shall be duly intimated to Procam at least 14 days in advance before the completion of the fourth Procam Virtual Slam .The inaugural Procam Virtual Slam shall comprise the following four feature virtual race categories:
o Virtual Half Marathon – Vedanta Delhi Half Marathon 2026
o Virtual 25K – Tata Steel World 25K Kolkata 2026
o Virtual Marathon – Tata Mumbai Marathon 2027
o Virtual 10K – TCS World 10K Bengaluru 2027
● Participants may begin their Procam Virtual Slam journey with any one of the above feature virtual races. However, to qualify for the Procam Virtual Slam Medal, they must successfully complete all four feature virtual races consecutively forming part of the Virtual Slam cycle. The medal shall be awarded only upon successful completion of all four qualifying races in accordance with these guidelines.
● Only these designated feature virtual race categories shall be considered for the Procam Virtual Slam. Registration and participation in any other virtual distance or any on-ground race category shall not be considered towards the completion of the Procam Virtual Slam.
● There is no separate registration required to attempt Procam Virtual Slam. However, participants must register for and successfully complete each of the four eligible virtual races through the official registration platform. To ensure seamless tracking of their data, participants must use the same name and date of birth across all four race registrations.
To simplify the registration process, participants can now register for all Procam Virtual races through a single event platform. For example, while registering on the Vedanta Delhi Half Marathon 2026 Virtual registration platform, participants can also add the Tata Steel Kolkata 25K 2026 Virtual race ,the Tata Mumbai Marathon 2027 Virtual race and TCS W10K Bengaluru 2027 Virtual race to their registration, eliminating the need to visit separate event platforms to register.
● Payment of the applicable registration fee for each race shall be mandatory, and all event-specific terms, conditions, participation rules and virtual race regulations shall continue to apply independently to every event forming part of the Procam Virtual Slam.
● To successfully complete the Procam Virtual Slam, participants must finish each of the four eligible virtual races consecutively without any gap*.
*A gap shall mean failure to register for an eligible event, failure to complete the prescribed distance, failure to complete the activity within the official virtual race period, failure to finish within the official race cut-off timing, or disqualification due to non-compliance with the event's virtual race rules.
● In the event that a participant misses, skips or fails to complete any one of the four qualifying races, the Procam Virtual Slam shall be considered incomplete, and the participant must recommence the cycle from the first eligible event of the next Procam Virtual Slam Cycle.
● To complete the Procam Virtual Slam, participants must complete each race within the official cut-off timing prescribed for the respective virtual event. Completion beyond the official cut-off shall not qualify towards the Procam Virtual Slam, irrespective of whether the participant successfully completes the distance.
The prescribed cut-off timings are as follows:
o Marathon (42.195 Km)– within 7 hours 30 minutes
o 25K – within 4 hours 30 minutes
o Half Marathon (21.097 km)– within 3 hours 45 minutes
o 10K – within 1 hour 30 minutes
● Participants must record and submit their race activity primarily through the official HDOR App designated for that Event. Participants may also use a secondary fitness application or device (e.g., Strava, Garmin, Apple Watch) to track their run, provided it is integrated with the HDOR App. HDOR will be treated as the single source of truth for the Event; only activity data synced through an integrated app/device will be considered valid. Manually entered activities will not be accepted under any circumstances.
● Participants must accurately record and submit their activity in accordance with the technical requirements prescribed for the event. The recorded activity must cover the complete prescribed race distance and comply with all GPS validation, activity verification and submission requirements applicable to that event.
● All qualifying virtual races must be completed solely by walking and/or running. Activities recorded through cycling or any other mode of movement will not be considered valid unless expressly permitted under the event-specific Virtual Race Rules. Procam International reserves the right to invalidate any activity that does not comply with these requirements.
● Activities found to be manipulated, edited, duplicated, manually modified or otherwise inconsistent with the official validation process shall be deemed invalid and shall not be considered towards the Procam Virtual Slam.
● Procam International reserves the right to seek additional identity verification or supporting information wherever necessary to validate a participant's eligibility for the Procam Virtual Slam Medal. Where any discrepancy, anomaly, or concern is identified with a participant's virtual race timing or activity data, Procam International may request an official on-ground race timing certificate, where the activity was completed as part of an organized race event, or any other supporting documentation for verification. Participants who complete an official on-ground race anywhere in the world during the designated virtual race window, record the activity using the HDOR app, and comply with all applicable Virtual Race Rules and event guidelines, shall be considered eligible for the Procam Virtual Slam, subject to successful verification. Failure to provide the requested supporting documentation, where applicable, or failure to satisfactorily establish compliance with the Virtual Race Rules may result in disqualification from the Procam Virtual Slam.
● Any accompanying recognition, including but not limited to a digital certificate, digital badge, leaderboard acknowledgement or other commemorative rewards, may be introduced by Procam International at its sole discretion. Such rewards shall be non-transferable, non-exchangeable and shall not have any cash value.
● Participation in the Procam Virtual Slam is personal to the registered participant. The use of another person's activity, sharing of accounts, multiple registrations under different identities, or completion of a race by any individual other than the registered participant shall result in disqualification from the Procam Virtual Slam. Procam International reserves the right to investigate any activity that appears suspicious and may invalidate race results or withdraw the Procam Virtual Slam Medal if fraudulent or unethical practices are identified, even after the medal has been awarded.
● The Procam Virtual Slam is an independent recognition programme and has no association with or bearing on the on-ground Procam Slam. Participation in or completion of one programme shall not qualify a participant for the other.
● A Virtual Race Finisher Certificate issued for any Procam Virtual Race shall not be accepted as a qualifying timing certificate or proof of performance for registration into any on-ground Procam event where a prior timing certificate is required.
● Procam International reserves the right to modify, amend, suspend or discontinue the Procam Virtual Slam programme, its eligibility criteria, rewards or these guidelines at any time without prior notice, if deemed necessary for operational, technical or other reasons. In the event of any dispute regarding eligibility, race completion, activity validation or interpretation of these guidelines, the decision of Procam International shall be final and binding on all participants.
● For all matters not expressly covered under these guidelines, the prevailing Rules & Regulations and Virtual Race Terms & Conditions, Privacy Policy, of the respective Procam event shall apply. Wherever applicable, the general principles governing the Procam Slam programme shall also apply to the Procam Virtual Slam, except that qualification timing criteria shall not be applicable, while the official race completion cut-off timings shall remain mandatory for every qualifying virtual race.
