Event Description

The Fighting Falcon 5k helps raise funds for the Fairmont State University men and women's Cross Country teams. Funds will go towards student-athlete scholarships, travel expenses, uniforms and gear, and anything our program needs for improvements. 

FOR 2021: Due to uncertainty with the COVID pandemic and to avoid any last minute changes or cancellations, this event will be 100% VIRTUAL. Our virtual race can be completed anywhere. You can run or walk your 5k any time between April 2, 2021 and April 4, 2021. Your race can be completed on trails, the road, treadmill, anywhere!

SWAG: All participants will receive a medal and custom race bib. These will be mailed out right after registration closes on March 26th. 

AWARDS: Top 3 male and female times will receive an award and Fairmont State gear in addition to their medal. (Fairmont State items are TBD) **To be eligible for the top 3 overall awards, you MUST provide proof of your time by sending a screenshot of your choice of running app or an image of your watch showing distance and time. You can submit your images by either tagging us on Facebook or by emailing them to sarah.ray@fairmontstate.edu.**
