This is a virtual Race, and we have lots of Doctor Who fans that have loved doing this race each year!What: This is a virtual race. You choose to complete a 5K or 10K. You complete your race on your own and submit your time to us. Then we ship your medal directly to you.
When: Complete your race any time in April 2019! *Medals will ship at the end of March, after that they will ship within 2 to 5 days of signing up!
Where: You choose the course and you time yourself (you’ll report your finishing time to us). Why: To raise awareness for Autism!
COST: $20, which includes your medal, official bib and shipping. Plus, at least 15% of every entry will be donated to the Doug Flutie Jr Foundation for Autism Inc. *We are in no way affiliated with this charity, we like to choose a different charity for each of our races and are happy to raise funds for them.
WHAT IS A VIRTUAL RACE? A virtual race is a race that can be run (or walked) from any location you choose. You can run, jog, or walk on the road, on the trail, on the treadmill at the gym or on the track (or even at another race). You get to run your own race, at your own pace, and time it yourself. Run on your own, or with friends! And your medal will be shipped directly to you. Complete a virtual 5K, 10K, half marathon and more!
