HOW TO RUN THE WUNDERGLO VIRTUAL 5K:
Instead of running a typical 5K in person with our group, you will complete the 5K wherever you choose. The course can be your neighborhood, local park, or on a treadmill. Although the official race date is Saturday, October 24, you will have eight days to participate in the 5K, between Saturday, October 17 through Monday, October 26 at midnight.
(Please inform us if you need to walk/run the week after instead.)
HOW TO OFFICIALLY SUBMIT YOUR RESULTS:
Medals will be mailed to the top three finishers in the male and female divisions. If you would like to compete for a top-3 medal, please record your run/walk time and distance (5K or 3.1 miles) on a smartwatch or tracking device. If you run on a treadmill, take & send a photo of the results on the treadmill console.
Then email your results to Jim Dowd: jim@wunderglofoundation.org
by Monday, October 26th, at midnight.
If you are running outside, phone apps and watches like Garmin, MapMyRun, Nike+ RunClub, or Strava
work well and are acceptable.
SUBMITTING YOUR RESULTS IS OPTIONAL.
All participants will receive a race participation medal, whether you submit your results or not.
