Fit to be Tied - Field Day Games
The excitement doesn't stop at the finish line this year! Introducing the inaugural 2026 Fit to be Tied - Field Day Games, the official post-race celebration for the Fit to be Tied - Father's Day 5K. Designed to keep the energy high and the family bonds even stronger, this competition is open to all 5K participants completely free of charge. Teams consisting of one parent and one child will go head-to-head in a lighthearted yet competitive showdown, testing their coordination, communication, and speed across three classic backyard events.
The games feature a lineup of nostalgia-fueled challenges: the Two-Person Sack Race, where pairs must sync their strides in a single sack; the nerve-wracking Balloon Toss; and the steady-handed Egg-Spoon Carry. As teams navigate each station, they will accumulate points based on their performance. Once the dust settles and the final egg has crossed the line, the points will be tallied, and the top-scoring teams will walk away with a collection of amazing prizes. It’s the perfect way to cap off your Father's Day morning with laughter, a bit of friendly rivalry, and a whole lot of fun!
