District 9 Dash - StayRun5K

Lace up your running shoes and join the global Stray Kids fandom for the District 9 Dash - StayRun5K, a unique virtual event taking place throughout August 2026. This isn't your typical road race; it's a worldwide gathering for "Stays" to move with purpose, celebrate their shared inspiration, and give back to the community. You have the flexibility to complete your 5K (3.1 miles) distance anytime between August 1 and August 31, 2026, on your own terms. Whether you prefer the comfort of a treadmill, the familiar paths of your neighborhood, or a scenic local park, the course is wherever you choose it to be.

The District 9 Dash stands out with its charitable mission, as all proceeds are dedicated to supporting a philanthropic organization, spreading positivity and care in line with the spirit of Stray Kids. Participants are encouraged to run or walk at their own pace, making this event accessible and enjoyable for all ages and fitness levels. As a token of appreciation for your participation and contribution, all registered runners will receive a custom-designed finisher medal, a special Stray Kids-inspired keychain, and a custom face card.

While you'll be charting your own course, August in Tampa, Florida, where the event is organized, typically brings warm summer conditions with highs around 91°F and lows around 77°F, accompanied by a 29% chance of precipitation. This gives participants a sense of the summer climate, though as a virtual race, you can select your ideal running conditions. Join fellow fans for this impactful 5K experience and unite for a meaningful cause.
