The Fittest 5k by Fitness Coliseum

🏃‍♂️ The Fittest 5k Overview

Let's MIX IT UP a little! We've infused a classic 5k with some fitnessing!

Fitnessing - "verb" - the act of doing any form of fitness you enjoy! Generally moving your body with the goal of health and having a good time. Can also be used in past tense, "Have you Fitnessed today?"

Each athlete will complete a 5k split into running sections divided by various fitness tests! All fitness movements are meant to be VERY accessible to all fitness levels.
