From the Organizer

10 Cities.

One Day.

One Movement.

Join thousands across the country on October 10th for the We ❤️ Teachers Virtual 5K .

You don’t have to be in one of our host cities to be part of this.

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. 

🌎 WHAT YOU’RE JOINING:

- 10 in-person races across the U.S.
- Thousands of virtual participants nationwide
- A shared goal:
👉 Celebrate educators. Strengthen communities.
 
🔥 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
Register - Now would be a good time
Move anytime the week of October 10th - though preferably on October 10th - we can all move together.
Log your time via the link you'll be provided
Celebrate being part of something big and special

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.

 🎽 WHAT YOU GET (No SWAG Option available)
Official We ❤️ Teachers 5K shirt
Finisher medal - same as in-person participants
Official race bib with your participant number 😎
 
🎯 GOAL 
We’re aiming for:

👉 100,000 miles walked or run for educators.

Be part of making it happen.

💥 CALL TO ACTION!!
