INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY 10K

Celebrate, participate and make it yours on 8 March 

Join us for the International Women’s Day Run, a meaningful and inclusive 10k virtual challenge designed to celebrate women’s strength, unity and achievement. Wherever you are in the world, walk, jog or run your chosen distance on Sunday 8 March 2027 and earn a commemorative medal while raising awareness for gender equality.

Lace up for 10K, on your favourite local route or treadmill, and join thousands of runners worldwide to raise awareness for gender equality and support women and girls everywhere.

WHY JOIN THE INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY 10K?

  • Flexible & inclusive: Whether you’re a seasoned runner, a casual walker or somewhere in between, this virtual run gives you the freedom to take part at your own pace, wherever you are.

  • Join a global movement: 8 March is internationally recognised as International Women’s Day — by taking part, you join thousands across the globe in a symbolic act of support, awareness and empowerment.

  • Commemorative medal included: Each finisher receives a beautifully designed medal, making your participation tangible and memorable. 

  • Raise awareness (or funds): Your run can become more than a personal challenge—use it to highlight causes you care about or to fundraise in support of women’s rights and gender equality.

WHAT’S INVOLVED?

  • Visit our challenge page and enter the event.

  • On or around 8 March, run, walk or jog your chosen distance wherever you like. Treadmill efforts are valid too.

WHAT’S INCLUDED?

The medal has a luxurious, embossed metallic appearance with high-detail shading and gradients. The purple and gold palette conveys empowerment, celebration, and prestige. The imagery combines femininity, unity, movement, and achievement, making it suitable for a women-centred athletic or awareness event.
