Adopted by You 5K and Fun is back for a 4^th year. Whether your motivation is to get in shape or support our mission of bringing children home to loving families, join us for our VIRTUAL RACE as we run, jog, or walk for Gift of Adoption. Everyone who completes their virtual 5K by uploading their results, will be eligible for the drawing for multiple prizes!

You can run YOUR own race between April 1 and May 17, 2020. Wondering what a virtual race is and how to get started.

1. Register by clicking the REGISTER button on the right.
2. You will receive a confirmation email for your registration. Make sure to keep this email handy. You will need your confirmation number to upload a screenshot of your 5K results as proof of your finish time once you have completed your 5K run/walk.
3. By using a running/walking tracking app via smart phone or a smart watch, you will track your progress while on your run/walk between April 1 and May 17. Some popular phone apps are Runkeeper, Map My Run, and Strava. Take a screen shot of your finish time once you complete the run/walk. Make sure to tap on the button in the app to complete your run/walk. We are looking for a distance covered and time taken to finish. Here are two examples of what we need.

We are so thankful to all the runners, walkers, “cheerleaders”, and sponsors who support our mission of bringing children home to loving families. Gift of Adoption’s mission is to fill the void that separates child from family through adoption assistance grants that give vulnerable children a permanent home and the chance to thrive. 100% of proceeds from this family 5K and Fun Run event will go toward completing adoptions for families in Georgia.
