HOLIDAY MILE, a National Tradition

The 15th Annual Holiday Mile® National Fitness Challenge is back for another festive season, inviting runners and fitness enthusiasts to stay active from November 26, 2026, through January 1, 2027. This virtual race challenges participants to complete at least one mile each day, offering flexibility in how they choose to move—whether walking, running, biking, swimming, or paddling. The Holiday Mile is designed for both individuals and teams looking to maintain fitness goals during the holiday chaos.
Participants will receive a custom digital race bib upon registration, along with an event performance t-shirt or hoodie, and a commemorative finisher's medal once they complete their challenge. Weekly challenges encourage participants to share their journey on social media through contests like posting motivational content, photos of their daily miles, acts of kindness towards the community, local clothing drives, food collections for shelters, and sharing reviews about their experience.
To be eligible for weekly prizes including an Amazon Gift Card and a $100 review prize, individuals must check in each day. Engaging with these challenges not only keeps participants motivated but also fosters a sense of camaraderie among the community through shared posts on social media platforms like Facebook. The Holiday Mile aims to inspire healthy habits and create meaningful connections during the holiday season.
For those looking to take their commitment further, teams can earn special incentives for recruiting 25 or more members; these groups will receive a $50 Visa Gift Card that they can distribute among team members based on performance metrics like miles logged. The Holiday Mile offers an inclusive platform where everyone from solo runners to corporate teams can find support and motivation throughout the holiday period.
Join the Holiday Mile today and make this season one of health, community engagement, and personal achievement.
