Sprint to Spring 5K & Fun Run
This event is organized by the New York Yankees and takes place on Saturday, February 14, 2026, at George M. Steinbrenner Field in Tampa, Florida. The event is designed to celebrate the start of the baseball season.
Participants have the chance to run onto the field from a player's perspective. After the race, they can stay to watch the Yankees' pitchers and catchers' open practice. The first 250 registered runners will receive a commemorative Andy Pettitte bobblehead.
The available race categories are:
- 5K
- Fun Run
- Virtual (for participants who prefer to run on their own time)
Registration prices vary by age and date. A portion of the proceeds benefits the Yankees Tampa Foundation, which supports local community organizations.
All participants receive a race bib, a custom finisher medal, and a Sprint to Spring t-shirt. They will also get an exclusive link to purchase discounted Spring Training tickets for select games after February 1st. If the in-person event cannot proceed, it will shift to a virtual format.
