Run for the Badge 5K, which is usually held in Washington DC, will be an exclusively virtual event this October in an effort to keep participants safe during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Earlier, the Oct. 10 run was going to be offered virtually as well as part of a 2020 National Police Weekend with in-rftb logo 2018 wrapperperson events. However, due to rising coronavirus cases, runners, walkers and National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial and Museum supporters can participate from anywhere in the world.

Register today as an individual or create a 5K team to honor law enforcement. Gifts and prizes are available for individual and team fundraising.

While fundraising for Run for the Badge 5K is not a requirement, the goal of the event is to raise $100,000 to honor the fallen, tell the story of American law enforcement, and make it safer for those who serve.
