Elon, N.C. - From Nov. 20-28, Elon Phoenix fans joined Elon Athletics for the second annual #Elon5K in support of Elon student-athletes. This year, more than 720 Elon alumni, friends, and family participated in the virtual race, helping to raise over $21,000 for Elon student-athlete scholarships!

Runners who signed up for the #Elon5K were able to complete the race anytime, anywhere during the week of the Thanksgiving holiday. Participants who made a gift to the Phoenix Club received a race pack which included a unique Phoenix Club t-shirt, race bib, and a decal.

Of the 720+ participants, there were 25 states and seven countries represented. Those who participated submitted photo submissions from from all over the world -- including Japan, London, Alaska, and of course Elon! To check out some race photos, visit out the #Elon5K photo album at the link below.
