Description
As the world continues the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, we understand the importance of healthy exercise, especially running and the sense of normalcy it may bring you. While we can't host an in-person race for the foreseeable future, we want to provide our wonderful running community an opportunity to still participate in your own race.
We also would like to support our local businesses who have done so much for our community. With that being said, 100% of the registration fees and donations raised by this race will be used toward the purchase of gift cards to local businesses to in turn use as prizes for the race. We appreciate your continued support of local businesses and look forward to the time when we can race in person.
Registration: Sign up online from Wednesday, April 22nd to Saturday, May 2nd at 12 PM.
Race Dates: Thursday, April 30th at 12:00 AM to Saturday, May 2nd at 10 PM.
How It Works: Starting on Thursday, April 30th at 12:00 AM, run your 5K race at any point before the 10 PM cutoff on Saturday, May 2nd and submit your results to info@scrantonrunning.com. Proof of your race results must be in the form of a screenshot of GPS data used from running apps such as Garmin, Strava, MapMyRun, etc. and must show the elevation gain from the run.

You are permitted to run the race on a treadmill as long as you run on an at least 1% incline to prove elevation gain.
