RUNGRL B’Day Virtual 5K Takes Place April 28
“One time for the Birthday Bih!”
April is RUNGRL’s birthday month and we’re celebrating the best way we know how—through miles with all of you! We've partnered with Gixo, a dope fitness app that offers fun, live workouts for every fitness level, to bring you our first-ever Virtual 5K on Sunday, April 28 at 9 am EST!
The RUNGRL B’Day Virtual 5K is a virtual meetup, but these miles are REAL.
What that means is the race will take place in the Gixo app, and you can join us from anywhere: your local neighborhood running route, the park, a nearby school track or even your gym’s treadmill. You’ll get to see your results as you run and get encouraged by fellow RUNGRLs along the way. You can share your results with the community when you’re done.
Here's how to sign up for the RUNGRL B’Day Virtual 5K in the Gixo app:
Go to the App Store or Google Play on your phone and download Gixo.
Open the app and register for an account using Facebook, Google, or your preferred email.
When you get to the pricing page, click on the event code and enter “RUNGRL5K” for access.
You'll be prompted to sign up for the FREE virtual 5K on Sun, April 28 at 9 am EST.
If for some reason that doesn't work for you, try this link from your phone after downloading the app: https://go.gixo.com/rungrl5K or search RUNGRL from the home screen.
Click “Sign Up” and log in to join us on April 28 at least five minutes before start time so you’re ready to go at 9 a.m.
In addition to the 5K, RUNGRLs will get to enjoy a one-week free membership in the app, thanks to Gixo! Use code RUNGRL5K to try this fun, convenient way to get in your workouts anywhere.
We hope you’ll join us and Gixo on April 28 for this virtual meetup. We want to celebrate our first birthday with our RUNGRLs! A year of miles, a year of community and a year of love.
Lace up. Let’s GO!
