We ❤️ Teachers 5K - Virtual Race

Move for the Teacher Who Moved You

On October 10, 2026, people across the country will walk, run, and move in honor of educators who changed their lives.

You do not need to live in a host city to be part of the We ❤️ Teachers 5K Worldwide.

Join virtually from anywhere and be counted in the National Day to Move for Education.

Walk in your neighborhood. Run your favorite route. Gather your family. Start a team. Move at your own pace.

What matters most is who you’re moving for.

On 10.10.26, educators, supporters, and communities across the country will move together as part of the:

👉 National Day to Move for Education

Walk. Run. Hike. Treadmill. Neighborhood loop.

However you move…you’re in.

We ❤️ Teachers Worldwide is the world's largest simultaneous teacher celebration.

🔥 WHY THIS MATTERS
When educators are healthy, supported, and energized…

👉 Students win
👉 Schools improve
👉 Communities get stronger

This is bigger than a race.

👉 It’s a movement.

 Your result appears on the national leaderboard in real time

🏃‍♂️ HOW IT WORKS

1.  Register virtually.
2.  Dedicate your miles to a teacher or educator.
3.  Walk, run, or move from anywhere on 10.10.26.
4.  Share your photo and help represent your state.
5.  Be part of a national thank-you to educators.

Dedicate your run
Every participant can dedicate their run to a specific teacher. That teacher receives a personal digital certificate of appreciation — often the first time they've heard that kind of impact acknowledged in words. Add your dedication during registration before October 10th.

School challenge
Running with your school community? Register your school team  and compete on the National School Spirit Leaderboard. Every virtual participant who joins your school team counts toward your school's national total.
