Virtual 5K Race Information
Information on the Virtual Fun Bun Run 5K Walk/Run
We look forward to your participation in the virtual component of our 5K. This is our fourth year with a virtual component and prior participants have had a great experience.
Our virtual option expands the number of people who can help us support education in rural Haiti by making it possible for people living anywhere in the world to participate.

- Your first step as a participant will be to complete your registration on the virtual race registration page.
- Once your registration is complete you will immediately receive an email confirmation letting you know that you are a virtual participant. Depending on how early you register you will receive your tee shirt and race bib in the mail prior to race week.
The next step is to multiply your impact by creating or joining a team to gain the support of others so they can become an addition or make a donation to your race.
Join a Team – Have a friend of family members that has formed a team this year? Help raise extra funds to support education in Haiti by inviting friends and family
Create a Team – Do more than just run or walk. Create your own team to raise funds to support education in Haiti by inviting friends and family to walk, run and donate.
