ONE COMMUNITY. TWO WAYS TO MOVE.

Run it. Walk it. Make it yours

THE QUICK DIFFERENCE
RUN Run Focused

Set your running goal, then count every activity that moves you toward it.

WALK Walk Focused

Choose to track just intentional walks or include daily steps.

BOTH INCLUDE

Your goal, teams, and the RTE Tracker with every-pace support.

Still deciding? Both challenges welcome beginners, experienced athletes and everyone in between.

START WHERE YOU ARE

A full year made simple.

You just need a goal and a reason to keep showing up.

Pick it.

Track it.

Earn it.

REAL PROGRESS. YOUR WAY.

This is what showing up looks like.

A week that finally clicked. A streak worth sharing. A badge unlocked. A route slowly coming to life. Every screen represents a person who chose to keep going.

Run The Edge legacy coin
YOUR NEXT YEAR ADDS TO THE STORY

Not starting over.
Building your legacy.

If you have participated with Run the Edge before, 2027 continues the commitment, memories and momentum you have already built. Return with a new goal, reconnect with the community and add another chapter to your RTE story.

01
Starting your first year
Every legacy begins somewhere. Make 2027 yours.
02
Returning for another year
Come back with a fresh goal and build on what you have accomplished.
03
Celebrating every chapter
Honor each year, every mile and every reason you kept going.

THE IMPORTANT STUFF

Questions before you start?

No. Run the Year and Walk the Year are designed for different goals and paces. Choose the version that fits how you want to move.
Run the Year can include running, walking, hiking and other mileage-based activities. Walk the Year can track intentional walks or eligible daily steps. Choose the challenge and goal that fit how you want to move.
Yes. You can pursue an individual goal, create or join a team, or do both. Teammates can move at different paces while contributing toward a shared goal.
Enter miles manually or connect supported services including Garmin, Fitbit, Apple Health, Samsung Health, Oura Ring and Strava.
No additional monthly tracker subscription is shown for these packages. Full-year 2027 RTE Tracker access is included with challenge registration.
Each monthly marker begins gray. When you reach that month's goal, physically flip the marker to reveal its color and bring another part of your year to life.
The RTE Tracker is designed around a customized goal. Available goal-setting and adjustment options will be shown in the Tracker and in the official challenge terms after registration.
This year we are custom ordering sizes instead of guessing and ending up with extra swag. This is what will enable us to keep our prices the same. Everyone who orders a Momentum package or higher will receive a Welcome Packet in the mail in January. The swag that goes along with the package will ship when it arrives. If you order by 12/10/26 you’ll receive your swag in March. If you order by 1/30/2027 you’ll receive your swag at the end of April.
Early-bird registration includes 10% off 2027 Run the Year and Walk the Year package options and FREE Virtual Event registrations as follows: Starting Line/Free 5K Momentum/Free 5K & 10K,, Essentials/Free 5k, 10K & MIles to the Max, Kitchen Sink/All 4 events Free.
You will receive instructions for accessing the RTE Tracker, selecting or confirming your goal, joining or creating a team and beginning your 2027 journey.
The 2027 challenge year begins on January 1. Early-bird registration opens on September 1, 2026.
