TROOPING THE KING VIRTUAL RUN

DATE OF THE CHALLENGE: 13TH AND 14TH JUNE 2026

Celebrate British pageantry and fitness with a nationwide virtual run inspired by Trooping the Colour.

Trooping the Colour—the historic British military ceremony dating to the 17th century—marks the official birthday of the monarch with regiments on parade at Buckingham Palace, the Royal Family on the balcony and the iconic RAF Red Arrows flypast. It’s a centrepiece of the UK events calendar, symbolising loyalty, pride and unity.
