Run for Justice Virtual Run

Join us for the 4th annual Run for Justice 5K! For the 2nd year in a row, Latinos Run and Black Men Run are teaming up for this great event. By participating, not only will you further our missions to increase health and wellness and fitness in the BIPOC communities, but you will help us bring awareness to social justice issues and promote equity, fairness, diversity, human rights, and access to resources. A portion of our proceeds will support two organizations at the forefront of social justice: ACLU (https://www.aclu.org/) and Equal Justice Initiative (https://eji.org/). 

LATINOS RUN promotes running as a way to improve the physical and mental health of the Latino community. As a minority-based organization, their goal is to highlight a community that is largely ignored when it comes to their health while inspiring more individuals of color to change the way the fitness industry looks. They celebrate diversity and aim to empower runners to “Get Inspired By The Journey”.

BLACK MEN RUN encourages health and wellness among African American men by promoting a culture of running/jogging to stay fit resulting in “A Healthy Brotherhood.”  Black Men Run supports a wide range of abilities and is open to everyone.  From first-timers to advanced runners, they strive to promote increased fitness and change the alarming health trends black men face.
