Celebrate global unity, sustainability, and personal achievement with the Earth Day Virtual Race — an inspiring event that lets you make a real difference while achieving your fitness goals. Designed for runners, walkers, and fitness enthusiasts of all abilities, this meaningful virtual challenge turns every step into a statement of support for our planet.
Taking place around Earth Day (22nd April), this flexible virtual event allows you to complete your challenge anywhere in the world — outdoors, on trails, in parks, on roads, or even on a treadmill. Choose the distance that suits you best, with options typically including 1K, 5K, 10K, 10 miles, half marathon, or full marathon, making it accessible for beginners and seasoned athletes alike.
More than just a race, this event is about purpose. Earth Day has been celebrated globally since 1970 as a day to protect our environment and inspire positive action. By taking part, you can help raise awareness and support environmental initiatives, with profits helping support Friends of the Earth.
