VIRTUAL Run/Walk with the Son for Haiti 5 K
(race date estimated)VIRTUAL Run/Walk with the Son for Haiti 5 K Race Description
Dear Runner/Walker,
Welcome to the 2020 version of your favorite 5K!
This year the Run with the Son for Haiti will be conducted as a VIRTUAL event, but it will remain almost exactly the same as the event you have enjoyed for the past decade.
You can register online either at stkaterirun.com or raceentry.com and complete your 5K on a course of your choosing between November 21 and December 6. After registering you will receive a confirmation email with the email address of where to post your race time. Why not include a picture? Please take advantage of buying raffle tickets for gift cards that will be mailed to winners following the event.
“Almost exactly the same..”, means there will be some minor changes. The great food spread following the run; the wonderful music provided by the Tabb High school Jazz band; Mary, Joseph and shepherds running in costume; and the wonderful array of silent auction baskets and gifts will all be absent this year. However, our VIRTUAL program is in full swing and while we may not physically be together we’re connected in spirit as we come together yet again to continue to support the St Michel Parish schools in Boucan-Carre, Haiti. Our 2019 5K provided $20,000, and we cannot sustain this level of support without your help. Haiti continues to battle natural disasters, political unrest, great poverty, and now the COVID-19 pandemic. Recent and frequent conversations confirm that the schools are operating and providing a much needed daily meal as well as education for 1200+ students. Our 20 year support program has led to tremendous student growth, and although the local Haiti community is slowing improving through an influx of educated youth; their needs remain massive.

Robin J.0/0 found this review helpful.Excellent family/school run for great purpose.
This run has been consistently fun, well organized, and professionally timed and reported. The indoor atmosphere, restrooms, and wonderful food will not be available in 2020, but knowing the proceeds will go to support the schools in Haiti, will ensure I participate again this year. I encourage all of you to register and run your own course.
Worthy Cause
This was the first virtual Run for the Son, but my third virtual run in Running Man. Very safe course. The directions on uploading results were difficult to find but I finally fingers it out on the last day. Beat of luck to everyone who participated.
