Welcome to our Holiday Virtual 5K Series. There is no set location, just run, walk, jog on a treadmill or using social distancing outside. It’s your 5K series, at your race pace. We hope by participating in our series, you can see improvements in your 5K pace.
All OU-Norman, OU-Tulsa and OUHSC students, faculty, and staff are able to participate. You must have an @ou.edu or @ouhsc.edu email to register to race.
The series will be conducted during November, December, Janurary, and February. Each participant will turn in their race time on Nov. 13, Dec. 11, Jan 8, and Feb 5. Racers will have the two weeks before to complete their race.
