Hi Pumpkin Runners! Would any of you be interested in doing a VIRTUAL 5K this fall? Due to COVID restrictions, we may not be able to have our usual race at the park, but virtual races can also be fun (and runners won't have to worry about the unpredictable weather)! If we host the virtual option, we could provide all our participants with cool finishers' medals and shirts! What do you think?
