Lehigh Carbon Community College and its Foundation will host the Fall Fitness Fest 5K and 10K event to benefit LCCC students and the college’s food pantry.

LCCC’s live event will take place Oct. 29, rain or shine, on a challenging, picturesque route on the college’s main campus in Schnecksville.

Registration begins at 7:30 a.m., with the 10K run starting at 9 a.m. and the 5k Run/Walk at 9:10 a.m.

Prizes will be awarded at the conclusion.

The first 100 registrants will receive a free T-shirt.

Free food will be available.

Participants can also choose to complete the race virtually.

Participants of the Virtual 5K Run/Walk or 10K Run can complete the race anywhere - in their neighborhood, on the trail, around the track, and anytime between Oct. 23 and 29.

Use a fitness tracking app or wearable device to track your time.

Once completed, download recorded time and send results to foundation@lccc.edu no later than 6 p.m. Oct. 30.

Results should include: hour, minutes, and seconds along with your full name, city/town and state.

Also, feel free to share photos.

Because this is both a live and virtual event, instructions differ, but registration can be made for either event at eventbrite.com/e/fall-fitness-fest-5k-runwalk-or-10k-run-registration-396640621777.

The race is geared to motivate LCCC students and employees, as well as friends, family and alumni, and the community to get out and exercise, while raising funds to benefit LCCC students.

There is an entry fee per person to the public for the 5K and 10K.

LCCC alumni and students, and the military will pay a small fee to participate.
