ABOUT THE 5K
The Run For It 5k is an opportunity to move for something that matters – whether that’s for health, recovery, or in memory of a loved one. This is a chance to connect with your local community and share the message of hope and help in a different way.
This year, our Run For It 5k will be on Saturday, April 15, 2017.
You can participate in the Run For It 5k by joining the TWLOHA team in Satellite Beach, FL, or in your own community as part of the Virtual 5k.
MEET-UPS
Hosting a meet-up is the best way to build momentum in your community and share the message of hope and help. A meet-up is simply a small group of people interested running or walking the 3.1 miles together. Last year, we saw 50 cities host meet-up and we’d love to see these grow.
We encourage you to use your fundraising page to share a time, place, and route where you’ll start the 5k. We’ve published a meet-up guide that you can look to for further information. Download the guide here.
You can also Register your meet-up here with the option to have your meet-up details published so others in your area can join you.
