🦝 Unhinged and Feral Virtual Race – 1 Mile, 5K, 10K, Half Marathon & Marathon

GET UNHINGED. GET FERAL. GET MOVING.

Some races are serious.

This is not one of them.

Welcome to the Unhinged and Feral Virtual Race — a wildly fun raccoon-themed virtual running and walking challenge for runners, walkers, animal lovers, raccoon fans, and anyone who feels just a little unhinged and feral when the running shoes come out.

Choose your distance:

1 Mile • 5K • 10K • Half Marathon (13.1 Miles) • Marathon (26.2 Miles)

Then complete your race anytime during 2026, from anywhere you choose.

Run it. Walk it. Jog it. Hit the treadmill. Take to the trails.

Your race. Your pace. Your place.

Just embrace the chaos. 🦝⚡

🦝 CELEBRATE INTERNATIONAL RACCOON APPRECIATION DAY

October 1 is International Raccoon Appreciation Day, a day dedicated to celebrating one of nature's cleverest, most curious, mischievous, and misunderstood animals.

Your Unhinged and Feral Virtual Race can be completed anytime during 2026, but October 1 is the perfect excuse to grab your running shoes, gather your favorite feral friends, and log some wonderfully chaotic miles.

This challenge is designed for all ages, abilities, and fitness levels.

The Unhinged and Feral Finisher Medal features a rebellious crew of raccoons, an opossum, and a cat decked out in punk-rock style with bold hot-pink accents, sunglasses, and plenty of attitude.

It's bold. It's ridiculous. It's feral.

And it's exactly the kind of medal that deserves a spot in your collection.

❓ WHAT IS A VIRTUAL RACE?

A virtual race is a running or walking event that you complete from a location of your choice.

There's no need to travel to an official starting line at a specific date and time.

Instead, you decide when, where, and how you complete your race.

Run outside. Walk your neighborhood. Hit the treadmill. Explore a trail. Meet up with friends. Complete the distance during another race.

You set your own pace and cross your own finish line.

It's a flexible way to stay active, work toward a fitness goal, collect a fun finisher medal, and be part of a race community — no matter where you live.
