You can complete your race on your own around your home, at the gym on a treadmill or even with a group of running buddies – essentially you can compete anywhere in the world! Our races come with no time pressure – your pace is individual to you and you will earn your medal for completing whatever your speed. You can even walk our races without the fear of crowds at the beginning or at the point in your race when you really could do with that 2 second pause. Each of our races have dates to complete allowing lots of flexibility to complete your challenge, see our website for the race dates and deadline at www.5Kevents.org 

WHAT ABOUT TIMING & RESULTS 

No official timing necessary for Remote Runners (TM), but you must return back to our website with your proof. We accept many forms of proof, as long as we can see you have completed the distance and the time it takes you, we’re happy.

Examples include Garmin photos, app screenshots, fitbit stats, program times etc.

All REMOTE DIVISION results submitted will be included on our Remote RUnners Result Page and for the specific event participated in.  

REMOTE DIVISION is excluded from the physical event for TOP OVERALL Male And Female and Age Divisions as they are not professionally timed.

TEAM AND GROUP EVENTS (at their discretion) may also recognize OVERALL WINNERS and are provided medals for that purpose, but is exclusive to each unique group.
