CAR Foundation Virtual 5K Fun-Raiser
August 9 - August 15, 2020
On your mark. Get set. GO! Our CAR Foundation 5K is going virtual this year. Whether you’re a competitive runner, looking to briskly walk with your pals, or just dusting off your sneakers, we welcome you to stretch it out and get your body in motion for a great cause!
HOW IT WORKS:
This year's 5k has gone virtual, meaning you can run (or walk) it from any location you choose: on the road, on the trail, on the treadmill - wherever you like. You get to run your own race, at your own pace, and time it yourself. You can manually keep track, use your favorite running app or use the ASICS Runkeeper app. You’ll be able to upload your results anytime between August 9th and August 15th. All participants will receive a certificate!
SHARE YOUR VIRTUAL 5K MEMORIES
Since we can't race together this year, we'd like to see your training and your finish line! Tag us on social media @chicagorealtors for a chance to be featured in an upcoming issue of CR Magazine and on CAR's social channels.
