Introducing the Race for Every Child Motion Challenge, Presented by MightyMeals

Starting Thursday, Sept. 17, MightyMeals is teaming up with Children’s National to launch the Race for Every Child Motion Challenge presented by MightyMeals - a 30-day countdown to the 2026 5K, designed to get our community moving together.

What Is the Motion Challenge?

Through the Race for Every Child App, participants can track steps and activity as they train for Race Day on Saturday, Oct. 17 at Freedom Plaza in Washington, D.C., or virtually. For the full 30 days, you’ll see the MightyMeals name front and center in the app - because we believe that taking care of yourself and kids in our community go hand in hand.

Why We’re Presenting the Challenge

At MightyMeals, we believe better health is built through everyday choices—from how we fuel our bodies to how we move them. The Motion Challenge brings nutrition, movement, and community together, giving us an opportunity to encourage healthier habits while supporting the children and families who rely on Children’s National. Every step is a chance to do something good for yourself while making a difference for others.

There’s Something in It for You, Too

To keep the motivation high, top Motion Challenge participants will be entered to win a free week of MightyMeals meal delivery!

How to Join

Everyone is invited to get moving with us this fall. Let’s cross the finish line together to give Children’s National patients a healthier future.
