Runs for a Purpose

10/20/2026

We want to take a moment to thank everyone who participated in our 2026 virtual run/walks! Your support has helped us raise awareness for important causes and make a difference in the lives of others.

Although our races are finished for the year, we're already hard at work planning for 2027! 🏅

We'd love your input! We're always looking for new causes to support and awareness races to bring to our community.

What cause is close to your heart? Leave a comment below and let us know what awareness race you'd love to see in 2027!

Thank you for being part of the Runs for a Purpose community. We look forward to another meaningful year together! ❤️

Our final virtual race of 2026 is coming up October 9–15: the Pregnancy & Infant Loss Awareness Virtual Run/Walk. https://bit.ly/4AG7JJk

For many families, this isn’t just about completing a 5K, 10K, or Half Marathon. It’s about remembering a baby, honoring a journey, supporting someone you love, or simply letting families who have experienced loss know they are not alone.

Because the event is completely virtual, you can participate from anywhere. Walk through your neighborhood, run your favorite trail, use a treadmill, or complete your miles somewhere that holds special meaning to you.

If you're participating this year, we’d love to know: Who are you running or walking for? 🩷 💙
