Thousands of people from over 25 countries joined in our first event on 18 April 2020, and following so many lovely messages we decided to make World 5k a weekly event.
Please join us every weekend, on either Saturday or Sunday at what ever time suits your schedule, as we attempt to get the whole world running. Don’t forget, you can share your progress and join in the global conversation using #World5k anywhere on social media.
You can join us wherever you live in the world as World 5k is virtual. World 5k starts in the Pacific and fans out like a domino effect across the world ending in America’s outlying islands.
To be as flexible as possible, you can start whenever you like as the whole world will be running throughout the day. We recommend starting on the hour (top of the hour), so you can start running with lots of like-minded people at the same time whenever and wherever you live in the world.
