PI DAY 5K

Join from anywhere

March 1-14, 2024

Participating is easy. This year we are celebrating 14 days of Pi from March 1-14. Since March 14th is on a Thursday, you'll have 2 weekends and 14 days to complete your 3.14 miles and celebrate with us.

During the 14 days of Pi window, run, bike, swim, baby-jogger push with your swag and post your photo on our Kudoboard or tag us on social media. The Kudoboard is a great way to see and cheer on fellow Hokies celebrating Pi Day.

The Pi Day 5k is all about getting together with Hokies and nerding out over pi. Enjoy any physical activity you want, for any distance. If you want to stir up friendly competition, share how many multiples of pi-mileage you want to cover between March 1-14.

*Register by February 28, 2024 at 5:00 p.m. EST to receive your official packet for Pi Day (3/14/24). Don't worry! Any registrations placed after the February 28th deadline will still receive a packet, we just can't guarantee it by Pi Day. You can sign up through, March 14, 2024. Check out the registration and shipping schedule.
