Run for the Bacon 5K

The Run for the Bacon is going virtual!  Run, walk, jog, skip. Treadmill or trail. The choices are endless. Since it's a virtual race, we can keep our distance but stay connected.  Proceeds support Bacon Street's work to give kids in our community a brighter future, free from drugs and alcohol.

Here's how it works:

Choose your race: The Individual 5k is $10. (You’re racing on your own, but you’re not alone — there’s a whole community out here cheering for you!) Family entries are $25 and include up to 6 members of your immediate household. (Family entries must complete their 5k together.)Choose your course.  This is a virtual race, so you decide: indoors on a treadmill? Outside in your neighborhood? Laps around your yard? On a nearby trail?  As long as you go the distance and complete 3.1 miles, the choice is yours!Choose your day. Complete your race any time between April 25 and May 30.Show us those race-day photos. We want to see you on your race course, whether it's indoors or outside. Tag us on Facebook or Instagram with your race-day pictures.Send us your time. We're on the honor system! We trust you to go the full distance and to time your own race. When you register, you'll receive an e-mail with instructions on submitting your time. 

Every race entry will receive a custom "Run for the Bacon" sticker, suitable for your favorite water bottle, mailed to you!  (Family entries will receive a sticker for each member of their immediate household, up to 6.)

Get ready, get set, get moving!
