Event Description

Do you have Earth Day spirit? Come on, let's hear it! Let's walk or run and have some fun!  


The ASH 5K Eco-Warriors event is an employee event celebrating Earth Day 2022 and the American Specialty Health (ASH) fitness culture. All ASH employees are invited to register and participate April 22 ‒ 25. That’s right, you’ll have 72 hours to complete a 3.1-mile course of your own choosing. 
And if you’ve done this before, we’re also inviting you to try something new. Tell your friends and family what you’re doing and ask them to cheer on your mission to raise environmental awareness. Or get them to help you plant a garden or tree. Why not pick up trash along your route (it’s called “plogging,” look it up). Going big or small, just know that choosing to be an eco-warrior will matter. Whatever you choose to do, this event will be fun! Show us how, as we can't wait to see, how the ASH team is oh-so eco-friendly! 


Please use your @ashn.com email when you register, so we know you are an ASH employee. 


 It's not a race! 
What matters is your participation. Whether yours is casual walk or you run at record-breaking pace, what’s important is that you have fun. Of course, you can try to challenge yourself to do a little more than usual.  


If you want to challenge others to make it more competitive, that’s encouraged. In fact, some of ASH’s executive managers are forming teams to compete for performance, participation, and spirit categories. If this appeals to you, reach out to your manager to find out how to get on an ASH 5K Eco-Warrior Challenge roster.

 
It's a virtual 5K 
Walk or run a 5K course of your choice and at your convenience between April 22 ‒ 25, at any hour of the day (or night!) You can walk or run during your break, lunch period, before or after your regularly scheduled shift. You can choose a course in your neighborhood, favorite beach, or trail. You can also walk or run the distance indoors on a treadmill. You can even swim your 3.1 miles in a pool (some have done it!). 


Join the discussion on Teams 
We've created an  ASH 5K Eco-Warriors  Teams channel. We encourage you to join in and get engaged with other participants. You can cheer, encourage, or challenge them. You can also ask questions about the event. We'd also love it if you could post videos and images of you showcasing your Earth Day spirit.  

 
Participate in the FUN! 
The ASH 5k is coming up and the SAC committee is sponsoring a Earth Day Selfie contest to celebrate the fun! Post a picture of you doing something good for Mother Earth in the ASH Events Teams Channel to be entered into a raffle for a drawing for a Home Depot gift card!   Find even more fun with an Earth Day Word Search available in the ASH Events Teams Channel files.   Even if you don’t participate in the 5k, you can still join in on the fun! 

Charities and Goodies 
When you're active, you are doing good for your own wellbeing. For this event, we want to make sure that your hard work will also benefit someone else. We are partnering with the Earth Day Network to raise funds as well as environmental awareness. Together, we can make a statement and invest in our planet! 
Every 5k finisher that submits their results in RunSignUp, can elect one of the options below: 
1. No t-shirt and maximize ASH's donation to the Earth Day Network. 
2. Get a t-shirt* and ASH will still make a smaller donation on your behalf. 
*Confirm your registration before March 21, 2022 to receive your commemorative t-shirt before Earth Day (April 22).
