*Bike riders are asked to use a 3:1 ratio, meaning a 15k (9.32 miles)
Which family should you pick?

Our ministry is about family

When you register, your “team” will be a family we serve that you will represent!  We will send you a prayer card  to remember them by.  Check out our family profiles to see which family you want to represent! 

Frequently asked questions

Is biking a 5k fair to the runners?
We ask that bikers use a 3:1 ratio, meaning while our walkers and runners are going 5 kilometers (3.1 miles) our bikers will go 15 kilometers (9.32 miles).
What are the prizes?
We have received a few donations of $50 amazon.com gift cards to give out to our lucky winners, just as a fun incentive to participate.
How do you prevent people from cheating on their times?
Since this is a fundraiser designed to increase awareness, we created ways to enter into a drawing for a prize instead of winning for the fastest time or fastest team.  This way, everyone has more than one chance to win just by participating!
What does the money go towards?
The funds for registration goes directly toward supporting our at-risk families in Guatemala.  Thanks to a sponsor for the “swag”, we are able to invest 100% of your registration fee into the lives of those who really need it the most!
What swag will I get?
You will get a t-shirt that represents the ministry and a prayer card with your “team” picture (ie the family you signed up to represent).  Being a fundraising event, we tried to keep overhead costs as low as possible so we can benefit the families the most!
Can I support the ministry on a regular basis?
Yes!  The registration form allows you to convert your one-time registration into a periodic donation to support the family of your choice!
How is the winning team determined?
The winning team will be determined by the average time calculated.  This way it is a joint effort by all team members and team size will not ultimate affect the overall time for each team.  Team standings will be posted the week after the race.

A Truly “Virtual” Event

What makes this a real virtual event is that we will livestream a 5k run in Guatemala on August 14th!  Here is a video of last year’s run with some of the families we serve.
