Run or walk anywhere and anytime between Oct 11-31, 2020
Due to safety concerns related to COVID-19, Harvest 5K has made the painful decision to convert this year’s run/walk event into a virtual event. No face to face racing will be held. Instead, you get the freedom to finish the race anywhere and anytime between Oct 11-31. Shirts and finisher’s rewards are optional to anyone who registers today. Deadline to register and still get a shirt and reward is on Sep 30.
