Virtual Heat Process:
Register for the event of your choice (5K or 1 mile), noting age and special category status on the online form. Anytime during the live race period, Oct. 1 – 13, run your distance at a location of your choice – if not on a local certified track, such as a local high school, then participants are encouraged to use a recognized application, such as Under Armour’s MapMyRun app., to document distance and time. After you finish, log in to your Potomac River Running account and enter your time. The top 10 times in each virtual heat will be entered into raffles for Potomac River Running gift certificates.
