🌐 Rumpshaker 5K Virtual Event

Formerly known as "My Rump is Sleeping In," we have now expanded this category to include the Virtual 5K Race. This is an excellent option for those who would be more comfortable completing the Rumpshaker 5K on their own or with a smaller group of friends and family. You simply pick your date and your route. This option provides flexibility as it is a "do it yourself" 5K. You are encouraged to share your photos with us so we can post them on our social media outlets. This category is eligible for a $5 discount for each team member (teams of 5 participants or more). You will receive the 5K T-Shirt as part of your registration package.
