A 3-mile walk for Long COVID. Walk with us in Birmingham on Friday, November 20, or wherever you are through Thanksgiving week.
Millions of people are still living with Long COVID, and many are still searching for answers. This fall, we're asking our community to show up for them, three miles at a time.
Every step of Walk the Long Haul carries a name. Each registration is dedicated to someone: a person fighting Long COVID today, a loved one we've lost, or the wider community still waiting for treatments that work. From Friday, November 20, through Friday, November 27, walkers in every corner of the country will cover their three miles together as Team LONG HAUL, separated by miles but united by one purpose.
Wherever you are, you can be part of it. Either way, you're part of Team LONG HAUL.

Invite your family, friends, coworkers, church or support group to register and walk with you.
Each walker registers once, with a $50 ticket or a custom amount over $50 if you'd like to give more. When you sign up, you'll tell us who you walk for:
MVRF is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit (EIN 93-2125003), so your registration is tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
If you plan to walk in person, please send a text to Meme at (205) 909-7690 to confirm.
Pick the bib that fits your dedication, print it, write in the name of the person or cause you're walking for, and wear it on walk day. Your bib tells everyone you pass that this walk is for someone.
Strava is a free app that records your walk and adds it to our Team LONG HAUL club page. Joining the club is optional and won't affect your registration, but it lets you view our official 3-mile route, record your walk and add it to the team page, post a photo from the finish, and cheer on Team LONG HAUL walkers across the country.
Join Team LONG HAUL on StravaNot on Strava? No problem. Send us a screenshot from any fitness app or smartwatch showing your 3 miles, along with your photo.
Snap a selfie if you're walking solo, or a group photo with the people you walk with, and send it our way. Include your name, your city and state, and who you're walking for. After the walk, MVRF will share photos and stories from walkers nationwide.
