Spring PCL My Home, My Life Virtual 5K Walk/Run/Move

Thank goodness 2020 is behind us, we’re more than halfway through winter, and people can get vaccinated against the deadly virus…but many of us still need to find more ways to support our healthy lifestyle.  In all this time, PCL has never ceased our efforts to support people with intellectual and developmental disabilities in creating great lives for themselves, AND to raise much-needed funds for My Home, My Life, our program that directly enables the people we support to live in their own homes in the way they desire.

All of this is why we’re so excited to bring you the Spring PCL My Home, My Life Virtual 5K Walk/Run/Move!  For only $30, you get to complete a 3.1-mile distance at your own pace and anywhere you choose.  How you complete that distance--walk, run, wheel, walker, skates, scooter, skateboard, bike, rower, treadmill, elliptical, you name it--is also up to you.  You'll boost your own health AND that of the amazing individuals PCL supports!  The distance can be completed any time from March 20th through April 1st.

Make plans to sign up and spread the word to family and friends!  This 3.1 miles has no restrictions, so folks in any state/town can sign up and join the fun!  Just think:  your whole family could do it the week of spring break…or your service club…your coworkers…your neighbors…etc.!  You’ll have a blast cheering each other on virtually, sharing photos and texts, or even doing it in person with proper safety precautions.  Anyone who wants folks to live their best life can participate, and/or you can also sponsor other participants by paying for them (simply enter their information instead of your own when you register).

Each participant receives

• a Partnerships in Community Living face covering
• a metal finisher medal on a neck ribbon
• a PCL window cling for you to display proudly in your car, business, etc.
• a pair of arm-warmers
• a moisture-removing pack that rescues wet electronics (we know what it’s like outdoors this time of year!)
• a participant bib from the website, if you choose to print one (link will be sent to you in your registration confirmation email)
• the amazing feelings of pride and happiness from this achievement and knowing you made a difference

Mark your calendars for March 20 - April 1, share the great news, and plan to start springtime with fun, spirit, and heart.   Funds raised will make a significant impact:  the Spring PCL My Home, My Life Virtual 5K Walk/Run/Move is virtual, but the difference we’ll make together couldn’t be more real!
