Run the 'Hood 2011 Virtual 5K/10K
Event Information
Description
On Saturday, October 22nd,
we'll all run our own race,
in our own place,
at our own pace!
It's time to lace up your shoes and get ready for the Sisterhood of the Shrinking Jeans 3rd Annual Virtual 5K/10K - Run the 'Hood!
Are you scratching your head and wondering what a Virtual 5K/10K is? Run the 'Hood is our 3rd annual virtual race at the Sisterhood of the Shrinking Jeans. We have an amazing online community of women and men, and because we can't all get together for the same race, in the same city, we race together -virtually.In 2009 and earlier this year, we trained and ran an awesome 5K virtually all over the country - with all of our Sisters (and Brothers!).We're upping the ante in 2011 and adding a 10K and 1 mile kids fun run, so runners of all ages and ability can join in. AND, this year, in order to make our Virtual 5k/10K feel even more like a real race, we have race t-shirts! Everyone LOVES a race t-shirt, right? And medals? Yep, we've got those, too.
Who can register for the race?
ANYONE. If you're reading this, you're welcome to join our race. You can also invite your mother, your brother, your neighbor, your cranky co-worker, your grandma, your kids, even your grandkids. This race is for people of every age and ability - even if you think you could never complete a 5K, trust me YOU can. Maybe you don't have a 5K near you? Maybe you are scared to sign up for a race? Well, a virtual race is EXACTLY what you need!! You build your own race course, train for your race, and join all of your Sisters and Brothers virtually on race day! Not a runner? That's okay! You can register to walk the 5K or 10K!

Organizer of Run the 'Hood 2011 Virtual 5K/10K
Are your jeans too tight? Well, you’re not alone. Lots and lots of women (and men) are struggling with uncomfortable jeans, so we created the Sisterhood to give you a place to unbutton your jeans and get comfy. Only, you can’t get comfy for long, because we are here to help you shrink your butt back into your jeans, and then shrink some more by offering you some awesome weight loss challenges (and so much more)!
The Sisterhood is an amazing, and often hilarious, site offering weight-loss challenges, fitness challenges, product reviews, virtual races, and lots and lots of support. Support? you ask? Why yes, we are here for you! And you. And you over there. Losing weight and getting in shape is hard and it’s even harder when you don’t have someone in your corner telling you how amazing you are on the good days, and lifting you up on the bad days. That’s where we come in…..all for the low, low price of absolutely FREE. We do it because we have been there (or are still there!).
Plus, we are just awesome. Trust me.
