Organiser's Description
YOUR REGISTRATION DOES MORE THAN SECURE YOUR SPOT
When you register for a Run Albion event you are giving back to the Albion community. With the generous support of our sponsors, we are able to cover the cost of the entire series. Each registration fee is then used as a donation to a local nonprofit organization that provides course volunteers. In 2024 Run Albion donated $4500 across four different nonprofits. As a participant in Run Albion, you can know that you're making an impact in our community.
ENTRY FEE: FEE IS $30 UNTIL THURSDAY, 4/24. FEE IS $40 ON RACE DAY WITH NO SWAG GUARANTEE
5K RUN/WALK. The 5K is open to strollers and dogs. Kids Fun Run is free.
5K SPECIAL PRICING: Students 18 and under $10 discount off entry fee. _Applied automatically during checkout._
PACKET PICKUP: 5:00pm to 6:00pm
RACE START: 6:30pm
RUN THE ROCK AWARDS
All participants will receive a finisher medal. Awards will also be given to the top 5 men and top 5 women overall for the individual events. Points will be awarded to all Run the Rock participants, which will be used to determine series awards.

VIRTUAL 5K RUN/WALK
If you cannot make the Run Albion series events in person, but you would still like to participate and support the local non-profits that are beneficiaries of Run Albion's proceeds, you can complete the VIRTUAL RUN ALBION SERIES! A virtual race is a race that can be run (or walked) from any location you choose. You can run, jog, or walk on the road, or the trail, or the treadmill, at the gym or on the track (or even at another race). You get to run your own race, at your own pace, and time it yourself. All participants will receive a medal!
WHAT: This is a virtual race, so you choose your own course and time yourself.
WHEN: Complete your race any time during race weekend, April 25th through April 27th. Medals and other race swag will ship by Friday May 16, 2025.
WHERE: You choose the course, and you time yourself. Text your results using the link provided when you signed up, and that will be your official time.
WHY: You want to participate because you love Albion as much as we do; you can't always be in Albion in person.
COST: The price is $30 and includes a finishers' medal and race swag item.
SERIES AWARDS: Virtual participants are not eligible for series awards, and there will not be a virtual series category. It is important to note if you participate in 2 in-person events and 1 virtual event, you'll be eligible for IN-PERSON SERIES AWARD.
