About this race

🔥 The Hot Shot Hustle – Virtual 5K & 10K 🔥
Run, walk, or hustle your way to support Wildland Firefighters!

Join us for The Hot Shot Hustle, a virtual 5K & 10K dedicated to honoring and supporting the brave wildland firefighters who risk their lives to protect our communities. This event isn’t just about running—it’s about giving back to those who face extreme conditions on the front lines.

🏃 HOW IT WORKS:
This is a virtual race, meaning you can complete your 5K or 10K anywhere, anytime between May 15th -17th 2026. Whether you hit the trails, run on a treadmill, or jog around your neighborhood, your participation helps make a difference.

🍪 EVERY REGISTRATION INCLUDES:

A gourmet protein cookie from The Scheming Cookie to celebrate your run!
A custom race bib (digital)
A finisher’s certificate
The opportunity to directly support wildland firefighters
💙 WHY WE RUN:
Wildland firefighters face grueling conditions, often risking their lives to protect our forests and communities. The majority of funds raised from this race (minus necessary costs to host the event) will go directly to the Wildland Firefighter Foundation, an organization dedicated to supporting injured firefighters and families of those who have lost their lives in the line of duty.
