About this race
BFit CrossFit is proud to sponsor the return of this St. Joseph tradition.
The Apple Blossom 5K run/walk will kick off the annual Apple Blossom Parade. In addition to a traditional 5K race, this year's event will include additional events for teams to test their functional fitness as well as endurance.
In the spirit of CrossFit, teams may enter to traverse the 3.1 mile course.

- Heavy Burden Run - Teams of 4 (all male, all female or co-ed team) The team must complete the course sharing the burden of carrying one heavy sandbag per team to the finish line. 70 lb. sandbag for male teams. 50 lb. sandbag for female teams. 50 lb. sandbag for co-ed teams.
The Apple Blossom 5k+ is a fundraiser to benefit Sisters of Solace, a community of hospitality and healing for women survivors or trauma, human trafficking and addiction.
