Lehigh Carbon Community College (LCCC) and its Foundation will host the Fall Fitness Fest 5K and 10K event on Saturday, Oct. 29, to benefit LCCC students and the college’s food pantry. Participants can also choose to complete the race virtually Oct. 23-29.
Because this is both a live and virtual event, instructions differ, but registration can be made for either event here.
LCCC’s live event will take place on Saturday, Oct. 29, rain or shine, on a challenging, picturesque route on the college’s main campus in Schnecksville. Registration begins at 7:30 a.m., with the 10K run starting at 9 a.m. and the 5k Run/Walk at 9:10 a.m. Prizes will be awarded at the conclusion. The first 100 registrants will receive a free t-shirt. Free food will be available.
Participants of the Virtual 5K Run/Walk or 10K Run can complete the race anywhere – in their neighborhood, on the trail, around the track, and anytime between Oct. 23 and 29. Use a fitness tracking app or wearable device to track your time. Once completed, download your recorded time and send results to foundation@lccc.edu no later than 6 p.m., Sunday, Oct. 30. Results should include: Hr:Minute:Sec along with your full name, city/town and state. Also, feel free to share photos.
The race is geared to motivate LCCC students and employees, as well as friends, family and alumni, and the community to get out and exercise, while raising funds to benefit LCCC students. Last year’s Fall Fitness Fest raised over $11,000.
Entry fee to the public for the 5K and 10K is $25 per person. LCCC alumni and students, and the military with ID pay $5.
