We also have a 1-mile walk, kids races, and virtual 5K and walk options. Medals awarded for the teams (the fastest and the most fundraising-est), place winners from each age category, and every child who crosses the finish line in the Kids Races. Top male and female runners overall win $50 cash. The 5K race is chip-timed, and all runners and 1 mile walkers will receive bibs. Bryn Mawr Race Management will be providing chip-timing services for runners. Runner results will be posted immediately on a flat-screen and online. Special Pricing for Students and Seniors!
