GenX "Live Virtual" 5k/10k 2025 | Sat 19 Apr | Book @ Findarace

To celebrate GenX, the generation of "come home when the streetlights come on", resourcefulness, independence, technology, drinking from the garden hose, wine coolers, big hair, the best music, and a "whatever, we don't care attitude", Relevant Running brings you another of our signature "live VIRTUAL" 5k/10k races with a unique and relevant theme! Join us on Saturday April 19th 2025 for the GenX "LIVE VIRTUAL" 5K/10K. This is no ordinary VIRTUAL RUN. It's a unique VIRTUAL RUNNING EVENT, with thousands of runners who have already experienced and love our live VIRTUAL RACE FORMAT. Among other things, there is a scheduled race date and start time (Saturday April 19th 2025 at 8am Eastern time USA), a VIRTUAL CHECK IN AND START VIA TEXT OR FACEBOOK LIVE-stream on race day morning, timekeeping (runners will text screenshots or pictures of their chosen method of time and distance keeping), a private and active Facebook group dedicated to our VIRTUAL RUNNERS, and age group winners. Please note, Facebook is NOT required to participate. You can use text to communicate as well. All participants will receive the one of a kind custom GenX 5K/10K medal (scroll down for pics). ******* If you cannot or do not wish participate on the scheduled race date, you can absolutely still register. Please select the "medal only" option. This option ships about a week before the race date. But, keep in mind, you won't be eligible for age group awards (engraving for your medal) or to be counted among the "official" times posted after race day. All registered runners should join our private Facebook Group for access to positive discussions and posts regarding our VIRTUAL RACES, race day live-stream VIRTUAL CHECK-in and VIRTUAL START (Please note, Facebook is NOT required to participate. You can use text just as well) Here is the Facebook Group link: https://www.facebook.com/groups/880518105739882/ [https://www.facebook.com/groups/880518105739882/] You are also encouraged to check out and bookmark our Linktree page for registration links to all our various events: https://linktr.ee/relevantrunning [https://linktr.ee/relevantrunning] Race Date virtual check in and start time: Sat.

Virtual race start at 8:00am Eastern time USA (or any time after as long as you are done by 11am eastern). The live-stream will be going while you are running, and we will be waiting for you to complete your 5k or 10k during the race day window of 8am to 11am Eastern time USA. As noted above, if you cannot participate on/at the scheduled race date/time during the race day window, you can absolutely still register. Your medal will still be shipped. But, you won't be eligible for age group awards, or to be counted among the "official" times posted after race day. Timekeeping: Given the unique nature of each runner's situation, we will accept proof of completed 5k or 10k on race day (only) via text (to be provided in pre-race emails). For example: Treadmill runners may text a picture of their treadmill console. Or, phone app users may screenshot their completed run on their phone app and text the picture. Or, runners using a fitness watch may snap a pic of their watch-face and text it in. You may run in any way that is safe, legal, and ethical in your area. This may be on a treadmill, trail, track, beach, sidewalk, laps around your house, laps inside your house, etc. It is entirely the runner's choice, and responsibility to maintain safety and follow all your own local laws, directives, regulations, etc. Results for those who choose to run competitively will be published in the Facebook Group and emailed.
