After hosting a purely virtual event last year, THON is offering the option to register in person or online for the 5K run.
Registration for the in-person event starts at $10. Runners can upgrade to buy t-shirts and runner’s boxes for up to $60, the latter of which contain a bundle of gear from the THON online store.
Participants will be sent an email containing a digital waiver to sign upon registration.
Runners who choose to register for the virtual 5K will need to set up a THON DonorDrive account, find or create a team, and choose a fundraising goal. Detailed instructions on registering for the virtual run can be found here.
Similar to last year’s run, THON is offering the virtual participants a free 5K training calendar to help runners get in shape. 5K course maps for State College, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Harrisburg, Erie, Charlotte, and Houston, are also available.
