We are currently recruiting for our next virtual race!

Have you ever wanted to learn how to run or run/walk a 5K or 10K?
Are you a runner who is looking for an opportunity to train for a race?

Then our virtual Team Sjögren’s program is for you!

We are looking for walkers or runners to join our Team Sjögren’s Training Program for a virtual 5K, 10K or Half Marathon. Follow our program and we will prepare you to WALK or RUN either a 5K, 10K, or Half Marathon distance over the weekend of June 3-4, 2023, in your hometown!

All of our runners and walkers will take part in regular training calls with your fellow team members and also get personal training advice from our experienced runners and walkers. Then between June 3rd – 4th, our runners will all head out to complete their distance!

Training for a Live Event!

This Team Sjögren’s training program will focus only on training and helping you meet your goal for your June virtual event. We will not be fundraising this Spring. It is our hope that we can all level-up our training to prepare for a LIVE running event next Fall/Winter! For the next TEAM program, we will bring back fundraising so friends and family can support you as you race for Sjögren’s!

As a Team Sjögren’s member, you will receive:

  • World-class training from our Team Trainer
  • Leadership and mentorship from past runners and The Foundation staff
  • Opportunity to join a team of those wanting to make a difference
  • And much, much more

The best part is that even if you have never run or walked such a distance, the staff and our team trainer will help guide you through the entire process and ensure you are ready to participate in June. This is a great program to help build a base for our first in-person event since COVID coming this Fall/Winter!  

Our team will be full of walkers and runners – so don’t fret if you aren’t a runner – Team Sjögren’s was designed for you! Our plan takes people from the couch to the course!

We hope you will join us this June!
