What is a virtual race? A virtual race is a race that eliminates large gatherings and follows social distancing guidelines. It can be run (or walked) in any location you choose, whether in your own neighborhood, on your treadmill, or in the hallways of any venue you can imagine. You get to run your own race, at your own pace, and time it yourself, any time between 8/26/2023 8:30 am and 09/02/2023 11:59 pm. You will upload your time and be placed in the virtual race standings based on your age.
Cost:
Adults: $40
Kids 5K (under 13 years old): $10
Kids Fun Run : Free!
Seniors (over 60): $25
