Event Description
Every year we gather around Island Park to run fast and raise money for our local food pantry. As you know, 2020 has prevented us from partaking in this annual tradition. However we still wanted to create something to get excited about, something to train for and something that also gives back to our community...so we're introducing the Virtual Run! Unlike gathering in person, you're able to run anytime and anywhere you'd like - but bonus points if you run up the big hill and back! You can run with your favorite group or solo, just stay COVID safe, friends. As always, 100% of the proceeds will be donated to the Winfield Community Food Pantry so they can further their mission of providing necessities for families within our community.
Here's how it works:
- Pick your distance (sign up for the 5k or 10k)
- You'll receive an email reminder when the virtual race "starts" on October 1
- Run your race on your own terms (you pick the course, the date, the time)
- Submit your results by email or on this event page ("results" tab)
- Results must be submitted by October 31
What's the swag?
- Personalized virtual bib and finisher's certificate
