Virtual 5K Race
Can't make it to the event, but would still like to support? Consider joining our virtual 5K option. All event swag will be mailed out Nov 5th.

Just reply back to that email and submit your 5K time, and proof of time. Proof of time can be a screen shot from your favorite smart phone running app, or a picture from your GPS running watch, or any image that shows that you ran the correct distance, and the time you achieved on the run. Monday Nov 4th all virtual runners will be scored and a virtual finisher certificate will be emailed to all that competed.
