Today, 5K runs and walks are great ways to stay fit or get in shape while placing an achievable goal that can be accomplished with family and friends.
For people like me, my only goal is to just finish the race. While for others beating a personal best time is trophy enough.
Charities nationwide and especially here in Northern Virginia benefit from 5K runs and walks. These runs are great ways to raise money, community awareness and energize stakeholders.
There’s a race for every cause and theme – youth, veterans, pets, zombies, ninjas and even mud runs.
