Virtual 5k
How will this work? It’s simple. Run or walk 5k (that’s 3.1 miles) anytime between Friday, September 25 and 5 p.m. Sunday, September 27. Record your time and distance (this can be done through a GPS watch like Garmin, Polar or Fitbit, or through a smartphone app like Strava, Nike, Runmeter, Runkeeper, MapMyRun, Couch to 5k, or any other time/distance trackable app), then submit your results. It can be a photo of your watch or a screenshot from your phone, as long as it shows total time and distance that will be fine. You’ll be able to submit your results via the Virtual 5k Results form on alumni.andrews.edu/celebrateAU which will open on Friday, September 25. Results must be submitted before the deadline of 5 p.m. EST on Sunday, September 27 to be included in the leaderboard results.
BONUS: Take a selfie of yourself before, during or after the run! If you post it on social media, tag it #andrewsalumni and #andrews5k and we’ll share the entries on our event’s page social media stream. Sunday evening, we’ll post the final leaderboard of results as well as a slideshow of the running participants from across the globe! Plus, our favorite photo will win a free Andrews T-shirt!
