Event Description
GLOBAL ENERGY RACE IS GOING VIRTUAL!
Bimbo Bakeries is proud to host its 6th annual Global Energy Race however this year we will be hosting our race virtually! The Global Energy Race was born from a dream to unite thousands of people around the world for a good cause. Throughout the years we’ve been present in 23 countries bringing our communities together and we will continue to be unified, especially during these times. On Monday, October 5th we will be kicking off our virtual race series allowing all past participants from the 35 previous host cities along with new participants in any city around the world to join together to set Global Energy in motion.
About Global Energy
Global Energy Race is for everyone: competitive runners, casual walkers, families, friends, and everyday joggers looking to come out and participate in Bimbo's healthy, active lifestyle initiative. It is truly a global event; In 2016, Global Energy Race broke the Guinness Book of World Records for the most 10K races held simultaneously worldwide on the same day. Amidst this pandemic, we are still continuing to support our goal and plan to do so across the U.S. virtually.
In addition to this Global happening, Bimbo Bakeries is proud to partner with Feeding America to giveback during these times of need. Every step helps feed someone in need.
So let's join together and be part of this unique event that's More than a Race.
