The Virtual 5K Run allows you to pick your own course and run or walk 3.1 miles at your convenience and then submit your time. This is a great option for those who want to social distance or are out of town on September 20 but still have a goal to shoot for and get a great running shirt! While this category is not eligible for the age group awards, your results will be merged in with the rest of the running field.
