Now, more than ever, people living with the effects of acquired brain injury need our support. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have taken our Annual 5K By the Bay event VIRTUAL. Run, jog, walk, roll or stroll 5 km anywhere in support of the Hamilton Brain Injury Association (HBIA) during Brain Injury Awareness Month (June).
Date: Any date between Monday, June 15th - Monday, June 29th.
Time: Your choice!
Race Options: You can run, jog, walk, roll, or stroll. We ask all entrants to practice physical distancing and follow provincial guidelines while participating.
Route Details: Choose your own route! We recommend you do 5K, but if a shorter distance is better for you, we encourage you to choose the route that works best.
Registration Details: Register online through Race Roster. You can register multiple participants at once (and CREATE A TEAM!).
Cost: Registration is $35 (12+). This includes a race t-shirt – Curbside drop off and pick up available (Hamilton and Niagara Region only). We encourage you to participate with your family or housemates - create a team! If you are registering your family, a group discount will automatically apply to your registration of 3+ people ($25 each). Have fun! Be creative! 100% of registration fees are in support of HBIA's Support Groups and Programs.
Results: Self-report your race results through Race Roster or email screenshot of your fitness app/tracker to info@hbia.ca by June 30, 2020 at noon.
Win Prizes: Prize allocation will look different this year but you can feel ever better running for an important cause. To recognize the importance of community and the dedicated individuals working on the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic, your win will donate a $100.00 grocery store gift card to six front line healthcare workers. We have partnered with Hamilton Health Sciences to select these individuals. In addition, the top six race competitors will be awarded free entrance into next year’s race (June 19, 2021). Submit your photos for your chance to win MOST CREATIVE PHOTO or BEST FAMILY/TEAM PHOTO. **ALL submissions MUST be entered by June 30, 2020 at NOON to qualify. Winners will be announced during our Virtual Celebration on June 30, 2020 at 4:00 pm.
Not Interested in Participating? You can still support our event and community! Donate to someone registered for the event by visiting the participant list or purchase a race t-shirt ($25.00) on our Online Store through www.hbia.ca!
