Event Description
What is a virtual 5k?
A virtual race is a race that can be run (or walked) from any location you choose. You can run, jog, or walk on the road, on a trail, on the treadmill, at the gym or on the track (or even at another race). You get to run your race, at your own pace, and time it yourself
Description
The holidays are quickly approaching, and many of us will get together with our families to share meals and celebrate one another's presence. Unfortunately, some won't have this opportunity to share a nice warm meal with their family members for various reasons. Join us as we run to raise funds for those who are less fortunate than ourselves! We will do this by donating a percentage of the proceeds to a certified charitable organization.
