Event Description

Welcome to the Run For Your Life Virtual 5K sign-up benefitting UK Physical Therapy Class of 2021. All proceeds will go towards board exam prep for the class of 2021 in preparation for their board exams next fall. Any extra proceeds will be donated to our student-run, pro-bono physical therapy clinic, Samaritan's Touch.

Our race this year is going to look a little different. We hope you will join us for a virtual run on October 24th, 2020 at 9:00 AM. This is a recommended time for everyone to run together, but you can choose to run this race any time during the day. Where you run and what course you follow is yours to choose. If you cannot run on a course, we ask that you run in a safe area with sidewalks and be wary of car traffic and road rules. If you have never participated in a virtual run, we have attached step-by-step instructions and suggestions for how to participate and have fun. The distance for the race is 5 kilometers or 3.2 miles. Please submit your finishing time by October 24th at 7:00 PM so that we can post this to our leader board.

Since we are running so close to Halloween, we are encouraging all participants to dress up in your scariest or funniest costumes to race and upload those here or send them to us! We will be raffling off prizes for participants that wear a costume and for our top finishers. We have complied some spooky prizes and gear that you do not want to miss! We will also be creating a video recap of the race with any pictures/videos that participants send in to highlight our runners and make the most of this event while remaining safe and healthy.

The registration fee is $15, but any donations above and beyond this amount will also be accepted and appreciated. Registration will be open until the morning of the race. 

Grab a buddy, put on a costume, set your watches, and join us! We hope to see you online and to receive your support for the UK Physical Therapy Class of 2021!
