VIRTUAL 5K

RUN TO 2023

December 23, 2022 to February 23, 2023

The Defense Association of New York is proud to announce the DANY Virtual 5k Run to 2023.  Let’s leave 2022 behind and get 2023 off to a good start!  As in the past, we want to bring everyone together virtually for a couple of good causes – The Food Bank for New York City and The DANY Scholarship Fund.   You will have two months to complete a 5 kilometer (about 3.10 miles) run or walk.   You can run or walk anywhere you want, inside or outside, as long as you complete the distance.  You do not have to finish in one run or walk, or even in one day.  You just have to finish the total distance between December 23, 2022 and February 23, 2023.   

If you want to enter the competitive race, you need to submit your time, date of completion and age.   The results will be posted after the race is completed. 

If you don't want to enter the competitive race, simply sign up and finish the distance.

This race is open to anyone – DANY members, their family members, our sponsors, our sponsors’ family members, or anyone else who wants to sign up and get some exercise!  Invite your family and friends!  The race is open to all ages.

Just make sure that you don’t run on any unsafe roads or areas that have been closed off to the public.  And please follow any other requirements set forth by any local, state or federal guidelines.  This is a virtual run only – so please do not gather as a crowd in any one location at the same time.**

If you want to submit any photographs of you or your family members participating in the 5k Run to 2023, we would love to receive them and will post them to our website after the race is over. 

All participants will receive a shirt after the race.   Proceeds from the race will benefit The Food Bank for New York City and the DANY Scholarship Fund. If you don’t want to participate in the run or walk, but still want to make a donation to The Food Bank for New York City or the DANY Scholarship Fund , you can do that from the registration page too. 

We look forward to seeing you all soon!  Don’t forget to register for this by February 15, 2023.  After February 15, 2023, registration will be closed. 

And a big thank you to our race sponsors, we could not do this without you!
