Description
Hello Autism Breakthrough Racers and Supporters,
In April we made the difficult decision to postpone our Annual 5K Run for Autism out of concern for runners’ health and safety due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Those concerns remain present today. In lieu of a traditional run this year, we will host a 21 day Walk (or Run) and Talk Challenge Event to raise awareness for adults on the autism spectrum. In addition to the challenge event, we will offer two 5K virtual events utilizing certified 5K distance courses-one at Tyson Park in downtown Knoxville and one in the Turkey Creek area in west Knoxville. We will also offer a "run anywhere" 5K and 1 mile event.
Packet pickup for this event will be held at the Fleet Feet store in Turkey Creek 10 AM to 6 PM on November 5 and November 19.
