Did you know that August 15, 2024, is National Sunflower Day? We are celebrating with our first Sunflower 1M 5K 10K 13.1 26.2 virtual race, with a beautiful medal that says "Always Bring Your Own Sunshine."

In addition to celebrating beautiful sunflowers, we're proud to donate at least 15% of every registration to Sunshine Kids. This incredible organization provides exciting, positive group activities and opportunities for children with cancer so they may once again do what Kids are meant to do… have fun and celebrate life.

Here are the event details:

- What: A virtual run (or walk) of 1 Mile, 5K, 10K, 13.1, or 26.2, celebrating sunflowers and the sunshine within us all. Choose your preferred distance.

- When: Complete your race anytime in August 2024, with a special emphasis on August 15th!

- Medals will begin shipping by mid-June, and thereafter within 2 to 5 days of signing up.

- Where: Select your own course and time yourself. Don't forget to report your finishing time to us.

The registration fee is $20, which includes a medal, bib, and ensures at least 15% of all registrations go towards Sunshine Kid. We are not affiliated with this charity but are passionate about raising funds for their noble cause.

What is a virtual race? A virtual race is a race that can be run (or walked) from any location you choose. You can run, jog, or walk on the road, on the trail, on the treadmill, at the gym or on the track (or even at another race). You get to run your own race, at your own pace, and time it yourself. Running and walking on your own, or with friends! And your medal will be shipped directly to you. Complete a virtual 5Ks, 10K, half marathon and more! Each of our races benefits a different charity. We’ve already raised more than $892,045 for charities from running events on this website! We are making a difference…one race at a time.
