About National Running Day

Celebrated every year on the first Wednesday of June, National Running Day is an unofficial holiday which celebrates the JOY of running. On this day, people all over the world participate in running events or go out for a run or jog to rekindle their love running

National Running Day is an extension of Global Running Day – a holiday that was created in 2009 by running organizations that decided to partner together to raise awareness about the joys and the health benefits of running.

Virtual Hour Run/Race

The goal is to run or walk one hour either at a leisurely pace or all-out race effort.  The choice is up to you.  You can run/walk your favorite treadmill, trail, road, loop, mountain, valley - the terrain and level of ease or difficulty is entirely your choice.  The goal is to set aside one hour beginning on National Running Day and celebrate by jogging, running, walking or racing. If running with others in person, be sure to adhere to local COVID-19 guidelines and restrictions.  Of course, this is a run or race you can do virtually and share with others using the hashtag #NationalRunningDay and #VirtualSocialRun when posting your results.
