(bene)Fit and Frosty Virtual 5k

It might be getting cold outside, but we can still lace up our running shoes and stay fit! Join us for our first ever fundraiser, the (bene)FIT and Frosty Virtual 5k! If you are finding us for the first time, we are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that hosts virtual fitness challenges to raise awareness about racial disparities and the manifestation of systemic racism in modern day American society. If you have a smartwatch or device that can track your fitness activity, give us a follow on Facebook HERE or Instragram HERE to participate in our next challenge! You can also check out our website.

A virtual can be run (or walked) from any location you choose. You can run, jog, or walk on the road, on the trail, on the treadmill, at the gym or on the track (or even at another race). You get to run your own race, at your own pace, and time it yourself. If you have a smartwatch, you can submit your results to us after you have finished and we will display results on our website and social media once the event is complete. Shirts will be sent directly to participants in the continential US. Proceeds from this event allow us to continue working towards creating a world that is more equitable for all people and making others aware of the biases and disparities that still persist today.

Race Details

Your race can be completed anytime, anywhere in December 2022 and is great for all ages.

You'll receive a beneFIT t-shirt for your participation in the event.

Registration: ~$38 (includes a t-shirt and shipping within the continential US)

Tracking Results

Submit your results by tracking your activity with your smartwatch or fitness tracking device and emailing them to info@benefitchallenges.org. We'd love if you took a selfie (especially in your shirt) and sent it to us with your race stats!
