Stars and Strides Virtual 5k July 1st - 5th, 2020
***Registration is open***
This run's for you, America.
Oh hey, can you see?
That’s some real bright sunlight,
And so proudly you’ll save,
Your eyes from sunshine beaming.
Run the Stars and Strides Race,
Wear the red, blue and white,
O’er the roads you will pace,
It will feel like you’re dreaming!
And the sun’s wicked glare,
With ease you will bear,
Give proof to your run,
With your very own pair.
Oh, say do those sunglasses help you feel brave,
For it’s time to run free and your eyes you will save.
Between July 1st and 5th, challenge yourself to run, walk, or fly like an eagle, then upload your 5k results to the leaderboard and see where you rank! Remember, you are doing this for YOU (and America) so what better way than to reward yourself with a pair of Goodr sunglasses!?
While we are still "all in this together", sometimes it's nice to do something just for yourself! You have the option to include the Goodr voucher during registration for a pair of your very own sunglasses that are perfect for runners, cyclists, golfers, beasts, and Bald Eagles or you can just race for your best time...or both...or just go for a leisurely stroll. You have earned it, do what makes you feel best!
10% of all profits will go towards Hounds for Heroes Service Dogs for Veterans. Their focus is on healing veterans and their families through programs that incorporate the powerful human-canine bond.
