Boynton Beach, FL: David Fleisher announced the “Virtual Run to Feed America 5k”. This FREE running event for charity brings us together as a community and benefits Feeding America.  Feeding America is the nation’s largest domestic hunger relief organization which has seen a huge increase in demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic.  This virtual run takes place nationally on May 9th at 9am in each time zone.

 
"When COVID-19 paralyzed the US, I was trying to see how I could help without being a danger to myself, my kids and others. Early on, I called the hospital to ask if there was anything I could do, but they were still trying to figure it all out themselves. While I was out running, the aha moment came where I could create a virtual run with donations going to a charity. I chose Feeding America because I learned the food banks were desperate for help and had seen  a 50% plus increase in demand. Americans were in need of food due to the immediate loss of jobs. The mission is simple. I am striving to bring together family, friends and community to have some fun, get out of the house running, walking exercising and helping to feed Americans in need." says David Fleisher, Race Organizer. 

This is a virtual run. So at 9am in your respective time zone you start your time and run, walk, jog, run on your treadmill for 3.1 miles which is a 5k. You then log in your time on the registration site at RunSignup.com where you register for the event and donate if you choose.  We will have a singer sing the National Anthem at 8:50am ET.
