This February, magazine, television, radio and web media professionals will be united in a 5k race benefiting Special Olympics. The World Media Run will take place Friday, February 22nd at the FOLIO: Publishing Summit. However, participants can take part in the festivities from anywhere in the world during the weekend of 2/22 – 2//24. Results from all locales will be co-mingled online immediately after the weekend.

Unlike most races, which feature age-group competition, the World Media Run is being marketed toward media professionals, and offers recognition for anyone excelling in their professional category.

World Media Run is jointly sponsored by Nxtbook Media, Runners World, FOLIO: Magazine and Wise Group Custom Publishing.

Attendees of FOLIO Pushing Summit may participate in World Media Run for free. Registration for virtual runners is $25. All participants receive a fashionable tech shirt with two-color World Media Run logo. A portion of all proceeds will be donated to Special Olympics. Online registration is available at Active.com

Results from all locations will be co-mingled and posted to the event website upon conclusion of the weekend.
