What is the Procam Virtual Slam?
Procam Virtual Slam is a year-long recognition and achievement programme launched by Procam International to encourage sustained participation, consistency, commitment and perseverance in its featured virtual races.
Runners are required to finish 4 specific Procam virtual races within a single Virtual Slam cycle to complete the Procam Virtual Slam.
The 4 qualifying races
Your Procam Virtual Slam Journey
Four races. Four distances. One complete Virtual Slam.
Procam Slam vs Procam Virtual Slam
Procam has two separate recognition programmes. They should not be confused with each other.
| Programme | Format | Based On |
|---|---|---|
| Procam Slam | On-ground | Designated on-ground feature races |
| Procam Virtual Slam | Virtual | Designated virtual feature races |
Registration for Procam Virtual Slam
There is no separate Procam Virtual Slam registration form or entry fee. Participants must register individually for each of the four qualifying virtual races.
You Must Complete All 4 Races Consecutively
The official guidelines state that it is mandatory to complete the four qualifying virtual races consecutively and without any gap.
Missing, skipping or failing to complete any one of the qualifying races means the current Virtual Slam cycle remains incomplete. As per Procam's rules, the participant will then have to restart the journey from the first qualifying event of the next Virtual Slam cycle.
Procam Virtual Slam Cut-off Timings
Completing the required distance alone is not sufficient.
| Virtual Race | Distance | Virtual Slam Cut-off |
|---|---|---|
| Virtual Half Marathon | 21.097 Km | 3 hours 45 minutes |
| Virtual 25K | 25 Km | 4 hours 30 minutes |
| Virtual Marathon | 42.195 Km | 7 hours 30 minutes |
| Virtual 10K | 10 Km | 1 hour 30 minutes |
Procam Virtual Slam Runs Tracking
Procam Virtual Slam has specific conditions regarding activity tracking. Participants must primarily record their activity using the official HDOR app designated for the respective event.
HDOR is treated as the single source of truth for Virtual Slam validation.
Strava, Garmin and Apple Watch can be used where properly integrated with HDOR.
Activities must comply with the applicable technical, GPS validation and verification requirements.

Participant benefits
The Ultimate Reward: Procam Virtual Slam Medal
The Procam Virtual Slam Medal is different from the individual finisher medals awarded for completing each qualifying virtual race.
The medal is awarded only to participants who successfully complete all four qualifying virtual races and meet all applicable distance, timing, tracking and eligibility requirements.
How Much Does the Procam Virtual Slam Cost?
There is no single Virtual Slam entry fee. Participants register separately for each of the four qualifying races and pay the applicable registration fee for each event.
What Happens If Procam Detects Suspicious Activity?
Procam has extensive activity-validation provisions for the Virtual Slam. The programme is based on verified participation, rather than simply submitting recorded distances.
Procam may request additional identity verification or supporting documentation. In cases involving suspicious activity or discrepancies, the organiser can invalidate an activity or withdraw the Virtual Slam Medal even after it has been awarded.
