Go the Social Distance 5K (3.1 miles)

Welcome to the Marshall Area YMCA Virtual Race Experience! 

During this COVID-19 Pandemic, we have been asked to be socially distant. However, that really means that we should be physically distant. Now more than ever we need to be connected as one, and continue to be socially connected through virtual experiences. We hope that this event brings you joy and also allows you to stay engaged with us at the Marshall Area YMCA because, even apart we are still together. 

So, you might be asking how does this event work? Well, let me tell you it's quite an easy process.

1. Register for the race. You will receive an email confirming your registration and telling you to save it for packet pick up, but be assured that there is no packet pick up for this race. 

2. Complete the race on your own time at some point during race day. If the weather doesn't look the best, you are able to run the week leading into the intended race day. There is no set route, so you can choose which route to run! Have fun with it, and feel free to pick your favorite course!

3. Take a picture of yourself at the end of the run, and post it to the Marshall Area YMCA Facebook Page. 

4. Encourage others that are doing the event via "Commenting" or "Liking" posts made by other participants.

At the conclusion of the week, all race entries will be entered into a drawing to win the following: 2 Virtual Personal Training OR Nutrition Coaching Sessions. We will award up to 5 individuals/50 runners registered. Results of the drawing will be posted through the Facebook Page.
