Today is Global Running Day, held annually on the first Wednesday in June, a worldwide celebration of a sport and activity that’s simple, inexpensive, and fun.

And by now you likely have heard of the Margaritaville Run which is all about getting people moving, giving it a go, and having fun while doing it. So far, runners from all 50 states and 19 countries have signed up, and we’re personally inviting you to come run with us on Global Running Day.

It’s the perfect way for longtime athletes to reaffirm their love of running, and for beginners to kick off a lifetime of life-changing commitment. It is a wonderful way to bring people together to promote running and its many benefits:

• To improve overall health 
• To maintain healthy weight 
• To decompress / handle stress 
• To improve mental health & well-being 

The Margaritaville Run is on a mission to promote a healthy and active lifestyle around the world, creating a culture of no matter how far you go, no matter how quick you run, today, just enjoy the activity.

We hope you can join us on Global Running Day and take the “It’s 5 kilometers somewhere…” or the 75-mile “Margaritaville Run Challenge” this year in honor of the big 75^th milestone in December. All participants receive custom Margaritaville Run collector’s items. The post-race party is open to all, so bring your friends, fans, and Instagram followers!

Happy Global Running Day. Help us celebrate by sharing our excitement and posting your activity with the hashtag #MargaritavilleMiles. Come run with us as we showcase mental wellness and physical fitness, the simple joy of lacing up a pair of shoes and heading out the door to spend time outdoors.
