Beat the January blues with our brand-new Coastguard Association New Year Virtual 5K event.
Following the successes and continued interest in the CGA 5K organised by several Coastguard Rescue Teams in recent years, we are taking the event national.
We will also be starting the New Year the way we meant to continue by getting healthier and fitter, spending more time outside which is good for both our physical and mental health, and also supporting the charity dedicated to supporting Coastguard personnel and their families in their time of need.
Not a runner? No problem! You can walk, run, swim, cycle, roller skate, hop, skip, jump…..the choice is yours. All we ask is you complete the distance of 5K and you have the whole of January to complete the challenge so it can fit in with your schedule.
Each participant will receive an exquisite medal to mark the occasion. Medals have been received at Digital Media HQ and will be sent out to all participants as soon as registration is complete, so everyone will have their medal in time for completing the event.
Our first national Coastguard Association Virtual 5K is being kindly supported by our friends at Erdinger, who have donated five cases of ERDINGER Alkoholfrei isotonic recovery drinks worth £40 each.
An isotonic refreshment courtesy of ERDINGER Alkoholfrei is the perfect way to end your virtual 5K challenge or any other exercise. All you will need to do to be in with a chance of winning a case of ERDINGER Alkoholfrei is send in a photo of you taking part in the Virtual 5K event.
Sign up online now at: https://www.paypal.com/instantcommerce/checkout/Q85D63ANC7AYE. The entry fee is £15 and all money raised goes directly to helping Coastguard personnel and their families in their time of need.
There is also no requirement to do any additional fundraising, however all participants will be sent a national Virtual 5K GoFundMe page should anyone wish to share with friends and family to raise some additional money.
We are expecting this event to fill up quickly so be quick to sign up and get your medal ahead of our first even national Coastguard Association Virtual 5K.
Thanks as always for the continued support and we are all looking forward to watching the Virtual 5K around the coast.
