  • IntSam Global 5k Relay

    Virtual

    In 2021, Mihretu, one of our Ethiopian scholars, set an incredible time of 14:37 for his 5K -- a time so blisteringly fast that he was invited to run for the country of Ethiopia. In honor of his accomplishment, we've created a relay version of the IntSam Global 5K. We invite you to form relay teams of 5 people to see if, together, you can beat his record! As this is a relay, you will not be able to register for this event solo - you will be prompted to create or join a team. Contact your team captain with questions or contact our race coordinator at [email protected]. The primary goal of the race is to raise awareness and fundraise for scholarships for students living in garbage dump communities around the world. How many scholars do you think your team can support?
