5K Flash Mob

What is a 5K Flash Mob?

A 5K Flash Mob is a group of runners who assemble suddenly to run 5000 meters outdoors. They complete this unusual and seemingly pointless act within 55 minutes, then quickly disperse, but often times will reassemble afterwards to rehydrate and replenish. All are welcome to join in on the Flash Mob, because it is free, but only registered participants will receive a bib number. Bib numbers have value, for free hydration awaits bib holders, plus gifts are often handed out at the post-race assembly.
