Coeliac Day Virtual Run - 2026
Registration is open - sign up today and start preparing.
The Association of European Coeliac Societies (AOECS), together with our member national coeliac societies, is organising the Coeliac Day Virtual Run 2026.
This is a pan-European online exercise event where you can choose to run, walk, or cycle a distance of 3 or 10 km anytime between May 11th and May 17th. We do this to mark International Coeliac Day and, this year, also to support coeliacs in Gaza and Ukraine.
Run and support gluten-free food shipments to Ukraine and Gaza
By registering for the event, participants pay an entrance fee of €10. This fee helps support the AOECS Emergency Fund for coeliacs in Ukraine.
How does a virtual run work?
- Register online – Sign up via the link below. €10 supports our Emergency Fund.
- Choose your activity – Walk, run, or cycle a distance of 3 or 10 km anywhere you like between May 11–17.
- Submit your results – After completing your activity, enter your time through the same registration link. You can also compare your results with others on the online leaderboard.
- Track your progress – Many participants use sports watches or fitness apps to upload their results and route, but manual entry is also an option.
