Space Force Birthday "Live Virtual" 5k/10k

THIS IS THE 2026 SPACE FORCE BIRTHDAY RACE Join us on Saturday December 12th 2026 for the 6th race in our 2026 Military Birthday Series, as we run and walk in celebration of the birthday (12/20/2019) of the United States Space Force. Races for the other branches of service are scheduled throughout 2026 in order of their birthday months (Army/Coast Guard/Air Force/Navy/Marine Corps/Space Force). This is no ordinary virtual race. It's a unique "live virtual" running/walking event, with tens of thousands of runners and walkers who have already experienced and love our unique race format. Among other things, there is a scheduled race date and start time (Saturday December 12th, 2026 at 8am Eastern time USA), a virtual check in and start via text or Facebook live-stream on race day morning, timekeeping (runners will provide screenshots or pictures of their chosen method of time and distance keeping), a private and active Facebook group (Facebook access is NOT required to participate) dedicated to our "live virtual" runners and walkers, and custom engraving for the back of the medal for age group winners. We also have a "medal only" option for participants who are not available on the scheduled race date. All participants will receive the custom 3 inch one of a kind 2026 Space Force Birthday medal (see below), with age group winners receiving the engraving for their medal back. ***IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN OUR MILITARY BIRTHDAY RACES FOR THE OTHER BRANCHES OF SERVICE, PLEASE GO TO OUR WEBSITE OR LINKTREE PAGE FOR REGISTRATION LINKS: www.relevantrunning.com OR https://linktr.ee/relevantrunning ******* If you cannot or do not wish participate on the scheduled race date, you can absolutely still register.
