This is the page you would use to register all at once for the 6 races in our 2022 "Live Virtual" 5k/10k Military Birthday Series. You can also register for the individual races with the links below. 6 races, 6 awesome medals! And, there is a way to get a 7th medal FREE! (see how below) The series includes "live virtual" races scheduled during the birthday month of all 6 major branches of service (Army, Coast Guard, Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps, and Space Force). Each race has options for 5k, 10k, or "medal only". The 5k and 10k participants will run or walk anywhere they like on race day using our "live virtual" race format along with other runners/walkers from all over the country, and are eligible to win age group awards (custom engraving of their time and placement for the back of their medal). The "medal only" purchasers have no designated race date, may run or walk whenever and wherever they like, and are not eligible for age group awards.
Here are the scheduled dates in birthday order for each race in the series for 5k and 10k participants:
- Army 6/11/2022
- Coast Guard 8/6/2022
- Air Force 9/17/2022
- Navy 10/8/2022
- Marine Corps 11/12/2022
- Space Force 12/10/2022
If you register for the 6 race series BEFORE May 31st, you will receive the Military Birthday Series Completion Medal (pictured below) absolutely FREE! This is a $25 value! If you register for the 6 race series AFTER May 31st, you may still have the option to buy the Series Completion Medal for $25 (until we run out).
If you are not interested in registering for the entire 6 race series via this page, here are the race pages for each race where you can register for individual races.

We have a unique "live virtual" race format. Here is some information regarding how we conduct our "live virtual" races. PLEASE NOTE: None of this applies to "medal only" purchasers. This is for our "live virtual" 5k and 10k participants.
All registered runners should join our private Facebook Group for access to positive discussions and posts regarding our "live virtual" races, race day live-stream virtual check-in and virtual start (Please note, the Facebook group is being used for other races and challenges, so come have a look around). We also have monthly mileage challenges you can join, with the best bling around.
You can find the group by searching Facebook for: Virtual Races by Relevant Running. Or, here is the Facebook Group direct link: https://www.facebook.com/groups/880518105739882/
On each race date for "live virtual" 5k and 10k participants, virtual check-in via live-stream in the Facebook group above starts at 7:00am Eastern time USA. For those without Facebook, you can check in via email or text. Virtual race start via Facebook group live-stream at 8:00am Eastern time USA. The live-stream will be going while you are running, and we will be waiting for you to complete your 5k or 10k during the race day window of 8am to 11am Eastern time USA.
Timekeeping: Race timing will operate on the honor system. Given the unique nature of each runner's situation, we will accept proof of completed 5k or 10k on race day via text (to be provided in pre-race emails). For example: Treadmill runners may text a picture of their treadmill console. Or, phone app users may screenshot their completed run on their phone app and text the picture. Or, runners using a watch may snap a pic of their watch-face and text it in. You may run or walk in any way that is safe, legal, and ethical in your area. This may be on a treadmill, trail, track, beach, sidewalk, laps around your house, laps inside your house, etc. It is entirely the runner's choice, and responsibility to maintain social distancing and follow all your own local laws, directives, regulations, etc.
Results will be published in the Facebook Group.
