☀️ OBX GO FAR 2026 Summer Running Challenge ☀️

Get ready to kick off your summer with purpose, movement, and a whole lot of miles! The OBX GO FAR Summer Running Challenge invites elementary and middle school runners to stay active throughout the month of June by completing either a Half Marathon (13.1 miles) or a Full Marathon (26.2 miles) at your own pace, on your own schedule.

Whether you’re running, walking, or a mix of both, every mile counts! Participants will track their mileage over the 30 days of June, building consistency, confidence, and endurance along the way.

How It Works:

  1. Choose your challenge: 13.1 miles or 26.2 miles total for the month
  2. Track your miles however you prefer (running app, watch, or paper log)
  3. Complete your miles anytime between June 1 – June 30
  4. Celebrate your accomplishment at the finish!

Why Join?

  • Stay active and motivated during the summer months
  • Set and achieve a personal goal
  • Build healthy habits and confidence
  • Be part of a supportive OBX GO FAR community
  • Perfect for beginners and experienced runners alike, this challenge is all about progress—not pace.

So lace up your shoes, hit the road, and make this June your strongest yet!
