Feds in Motion Challenge

Lace up your shoes for the 6th Annual Feds in Motion Challenge, a unique virtual event kicking off on May 1, 2026, and running through June 6, 2026. This flexible challenge invites participants from Alexandria, VA, and across the globe to complete 37 miles over 37 days, celebrating federal public service and promoting wellness. Whether you prefer walking, running, biking, swimming, or rolling, you can tailor your activity to your favorite routes and schedule, making this an accessible event for everyone.

The Feds in Motion Challenge stands out by allowing you to choose your own course and pace, fostering a sense of community among federal employees and their families wherever they are. Typical conditions during this period often bring comfortable highs around 72°F and lows near 50°F, with a relatively low 17% chance of precipitation, creating ideal weather for outdoor activity across many regions. All proceeds directly benefit the Federal Employee Education and Assistance Fund (FEEA), supporting their vital programs for federal families, including disaster relief, emergency hardship, and scholarships. Participants receive a t-shirt, participation medal, digital bib, and access to an online leaderboard, along with digital finisher certificates and fun digital badges for mileage milestones. Weekly Wellness Wednesday events with prize drawings add to the engaging atmosphere of this impactful virtual race.
