about THE RACE
ANNOUNCEMENT: We're going virtual! Due to the Covid Crisis, many charities risk losing income because of cancelled fundraisers. We use the funds raised from the KF5 to provide additional educational tools to the students of Kootenay Christian Academy. We also feel our community needs as much joy, fun, and feel-good vibes as possible right now! So for this reason, we invite you to participate in our virtual 5k! Get out and do 5k anywhere! Exercise alone, or exercise with members of your household! Observe safe distancing protocols! Then upload a picture here with the hashtag #unstoppable and come pick up your t-shirt and swag bag the first week of June (we will send you an email explaining how that will take place)! Sound fun? It will be a huge boost to your spirit! More info to follow by email for those already registered.

Looking for a fun run for the entire family?
With an enormously successful event last year that brought out over 650 participants, the fifth annual KootenayFun5 on Saturday May 9th, 2020 in Cranbrook is an event not to be missed! WE ARE UNSTOPPABLE!
Featuring a scenic 5K flat, fast course, this is the perfect race for novice and experienced runners, joggers and walkers alike. Safe and friendly for kids of all ages allowing everyone in the family to join in on the fun.
After completing the race, all participants are invited to stay for the post-race festivities with food, bouncy castles, award ceremony and much more!
The top three male and female in each age category will win a medal and top male and female runners overall will receive a FREE pair of running shoes from Gerick Sports!
PLUS - random draws for all participants!
All this makes the KootenayFun5 a race that cannot be missed!
