VIRTUAL PJ 5K RUN & 1-MILE WALK NOVEMBER 22 TO DECEMBER 6
The annual PJ 5K at Las Vegas Motor Speedway is going virtual in 2020. Beginning Sunday, Nov. 22 and running through Sunday, Dec. 6 participants can participate in the annual 5K run and 1-mile walk that benefits Speedway Children’s Charities by simply logging on to an electronic device. While the event won’t be done in person due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it will raise vital funds to help local children in Southern Nevada.
And this year, participants all over the country can run or walk through the virtual world of Glittering Lights – the speedway’s annual holiday light display.
All entries are a donation of $25! Kids 5 and under are free. All paid participants will receive:
PJ 5K Race Bib
Finishers Medal
$5 coupon per car to drive through dazzling Glittering Lights at Las Vegas Motor Speedway
Glittering Light’s mascot, Biscuit, on a Stick fan, to take with you on your run/walk/stroll – take photos of Biscuit during your PJ run and post using the hashtag #PJ5K2020.
The person who submits a photo of Biscuit the farthest from Las Vegas will win two tickets to a NASCAR race in 2021!
For an additional $10 donation, participants may enter a contest to win a 5- to 10-minute Zoom call with Santa Claus who will read, “Twas The Night Before Christmas!”
For a $20 donation, enter a contest to win two (2) VIP Luxury Suite Passes to one of the 2021 NASCAR Cup Series races at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
