Description
Going to the Dogs has never felt this good!
A portion of this event’s proceeds benefits our featured charity, Mutts of the Mitten.
Epic Races invites you to the first annual Mutts of the Mitten Virtual 5K. Both Epic Races and Mutts of the Mitten wholeheartedly believe in exploring our surroundings, for both humans and our 4-legged friends and this inaugural event invites you to get moving and have some fun! Grab your own dog or maybe volunteer to take a dog in rescue out on the trails.
Steps to Take, Strides to Run
To participate in the Mutts of the Mitten Virtual 5K, follow these steps:
- Register for this event at RunSignUp; deadline to register is December 1, 2017!
- Head to your chosen park and go for your Mutts of the Mitten 5K (or jog, walk, skip, dance… anything on your own two feet) between October 10th and December 20th.
- Tell us about your Mutts of the Mitten 5K! Head to the 2017 Mutts of the Mitten Virtual 5K Facebook page, “join” the event if you haven’t already, then upload a photo of your GPS tracker showing your mileage and time, share a selfie of you where you ran or walked, or post a comment about your run or walk and tag the park. You can also post your photos on Instagram and tag us (@muttsofthemitten & @epicraces) or tweet about it on Twitter and tag us (@epicraces). There is no need to report your run to us! Letting us know about your Mutts of the Mitten 5K via social media is preferred, but not mandatory!
All swag will be sent out by December 20, 2017!
