Save the Polar Bear 1M 5K 10K 13.1 26.2-Save $2 | Around the World!

Details

International Polar Bear Day is a significant annual event celebrated on February 27. This day is strategically chosen to coincide with the time when polar bear mothers and cubs are hibernating in their dens. The primary aim of this event is to raise awareness about the conservation status of polar bears. To commemorate this remarkable animal, we are hosting our first-ever Save the Polar Bears virtual race! Participants have the option to complete a range of distances, including 1 mile, 5K, 10K, 13.1 miles, or 26.2 miles, either by running or walking, to honor these majestic creatures. What makes our virtual race even more special is that your participation will make a real difference. A generous 15% of every registration fee will be donated to Polar Bears International, an organization dedicated to conserving polar bears and their sea ice habitat. Their mission is not only to protect the bears but also to inspire people to care about the Arctic and its fragile ecosystem, which has a direct impact on our global climate. When you sign up for the Save the Polar Bear virtual race, you will receive a medal and bib, which will be mailed to your address. You can complete your race anytime between January 1 and February 29, 2024. Medals will start shipping out in mid-December, and if you sign up after that, they will be shipped within 2 to 5 days. Participating in a virtual race allows you the freedom to choose your own location and pace. Whether you prefer running on the road, the trail, or even on a treadmill, you have the flexibility to complete the race in a way that suits you. By joining our races, you are not only challenging yourself but also contributing to a worthy cause. Save the Polar Bear 1M 5K 10K 13.1 26.2-Save $2 is an event that supports various charities, and to date, we have raised over $892,045 for these organizations through our running events. Together, we are making a difference—one race at a time. Join us in our mission to save the polar bears and their habitat by registering for this virtual race today.
