Race to Share the Gospel Around the World

The Race to Share the Gospel Around the World is a multi-format event held in May 2026. The 2026 edition supports outreach programming in Thailand. Participants can choose between in-person activities at Norlo Park in Fayetteville, Pennsylvania, or virtual challenges that can be completed from any location.

The in-person events take place on May 16, 2026, and include a 5K Run/Walk and a 1-Mile Fun Run/Walk. A local Family Fun Day is also part of the program, which includes a free lunch for race participants and a special drawing for those who pre-register.

For those participating remotely, several virtual options are available between May 16 and May 31, 2026. These include a 16-Day Virtual Challenge and the Ride for The Tide Virtual Challenge. Participants in the virtual challenge are encouraged to complete 13 miles over the 16-day period by running, walking, biking, hiking, or swimming.

Available event categories:

  • 5K Run/Walk (In-person)
  • 1-Mile Fun Run/Walk (In-person)
  • 16-Day Virtual Challenge (Virtual)
  • Ride for The Tide Virtual Challenge (Virtual)

Youth groups with four or more student participants can enter as a Student Ministry Sponsor for a chance to win a pizza party. Registration fees are structured so that one fee allows participation in up to three different events. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
