EXTENDED Run Like a Viking Challenge

1. A custom Run Like a Viking t-shirt, featuring a Viking longship crewed by herring! (Sizes ranging from S-XXXL, while supplies last) 👕
2. Racing bib 🏃
3. Two (2) general admission tickets to the Museum (expire August 2026) 🎟️
4. One (1) coupon for a free fries at Skål Beer Hall in Ballard 🍟

This year's t-shirt was designed by Jens Malone, an artist, illustrator, and Guest Services staff member at the Museum. Here's what they had to say about their design inspiration:

After exploring iconic symbols of Vikings and Nordic history, I decided to combine two: the herring and the Viking ship. It's also a very Ballard pairing, with our shipyards, salmon, and seafood. 

I like to put a little humor into what I make, so of course, the herring are the Vikings in this ship — though there is a herring looking back up at the others from the water in confusion.

Don your RLAV T-shirt and complete a 5K with a walk from the Museum to Ballard’s favorite Viking bar, Skål Beer Hall! Registration for the Run Like a Viking challenge is required to participate in this meet-up.
