Join Our First-Ever Virtual 5k Challenge!
Get ready to lace up your running shoes (or walking shoes – your pace is up to you!) and take part in our first-ever Virtual 5k Challenge! This exciting event will take place from May 26-May 30, and the best part? You can complete the challenge on your own schedule!

How It Works
Participants will use the My Virtual Mission app to track their progress as they walk, run, or even crawl their way to the 5k finish line. Whether you prefer to take on the challenge solo or for a team, you’ll have the chance to connect with other participants through the app, sharing encouragement, progress, and motivation along the way.

Capture the Moment & Win!
Want to make the experience even more fun? Stop along your route and snap some photos of landmarks throughout Headwaters Park, Promenade Park and even the surrounding areas. Submit your landmark photos and you could win a prize for the best landmark photo, in addition to awarding the participant who completes the 5k in the shortest time (walking and running).

Registration Details
• Fee: $5 for youth, $10 for adults (18+)
