Celebrate the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge with our 27th Annual Run for the Refuge! Support the conservation of Alaska's largest refuge by participating in this hybrid race, meaning you can participate in person or virtually. All proceeds go to the Northern Alaska Environmental Center's Arctic Program which advocates for the permanent protection of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.

For those outside of Fairbanks, participate by running, walking, hiking, biking, paddling, or another human-powered activity on a route of your own design between July 14-16th. Join the Northern Alaska Environmental Center's Facebook Event Page to discuss your routes and get inspired. Use #RunForTheRefuge and tag @NorthernCenter on social media to share your adventures!

Regardless of location, registrants will receive Run for the Refuge iron-on patches. Register early to ensure we order enough!

Run Packets will be mailed for all virtual registrants. A patch is included in your registration fee.
