The Burpee 5K

The Burpee 5K The goal of this event is to complete a 5K of broad jump burpees, whether that's by yourself or with a team to raise money for the Green Beret Foundation.

The goal of this event is to complete a 5K of burpees, whether that's by yourself or with a team. If you're going by yourself, we suggest doing burpees without push ups and to pace yourself. You're not required to finish the entire 5K. You can do a quarter mile, half mile, 1 mile, etc. You can also donate without participating at all. If you are participating, please bring enough water and electro

lyte supplements to push through these burpees. Shirts and medals will be given to participants. You can choose any amount you would like to donate, whether you are just donating or participating. This is a charity event for the Green Beret Foundation. The Green Beret Foundation is a non-for-profit organization that provides unconventional resources to facilitate the special needs of our wounded, ill and injured Green Berets and Green Beret Gold Star families. The GBF imparts unique support to the Special Forces Community in order to strengthen readiness and uphold Green Beret traditions and values. - See more at: http://www.greenberetfoundation.org/about/
