We get it – getting out early on a cold February morning isn’t for everyone. That’s why Hand to Hold is introducing our first ever Team Hand to Hold Virtual 5K, a fun, interactive and flexible opportunity for even more people to get involved and run on behalf of NICU babies and their families. Here’s how it works.
Sign up!
Sign up for our Team Hand to Hold Virtual 5K here. You will be automatically directed to create your Crowdrise fundraising page, where you can set your fundraising goal and share your story and photos. Visit our Crowdrise page and click on “The Team” for inspiration!
Train and fundraise
Share your Crowdrise page with your friends, family and social networks, and encourage them to donate to your cause as you train to run your best race for NICU families!
Pick your Team Hand to Hold Virtual 5K race day
The great thing about this virtual 5K is the flexibility to run your race on your schedule. Run on the day of the Austin Marathon, Half Marathon and Paramount 5k (February 17), or pick a day that works better for you. Runners have until the end of February to submit their finish times.
Submit your time and photos
Once you’ve completed your virtual race, submit your time and photos here. We’ll celebrate your finish by sharing with our online communities!
You did it! Enjoy your swag.
Everyone who submits a completion time and has raised a minimum of $50 will receive a Team Hand to Hold t-shirt and a goody bag as a thank you for their participation and fundraising efforts. You did it!
