Harley’s Halloween Virtual 10K for HIKE
Harley’s Halloween Virtual 10K for HIKE
Harley invites all walkers, runners, cyclists, or broom riders to join the fun in October for his annual Harley’s Halloween Virtual 10K for HIKE! Registration ends on September 16, 2020. His goal is to raise $1,000 for HIKE in the month of October 2020. Cost is $18 (no medal) and $22 (with medal).
A virtual race is a race that can be run (cycled or walked) from any location you choose. You can cycle, run, jog, or walk on the road, on the trail, on the treadmill, at the gym or on the track. You get to run your own race, at your own pace in one day or break it up and do small bits throughout the month of October.
Stay mindful of physical distancing and proper mask and handwashing in public spaces that may be crowded for recreation and fitness. Anyone who wants to participate must register. The cost is $18 (no medal) and $22 (with race medal). This year we will have a fun prize for the person who lives the farthest away from Harley. All Jobies who participate can receive credit toward their designated totals for the $1,000 Club.
