Pacers and November Project Run To Celebrate Women

Sunday, March 13
10:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.
Yours Truly DC Hotel

Produced in partnership with Run 4 All Women, Brooks, Yours Truly DC Hotel and Athletic Brewing Company (ABC), the event offers a 1.7 mile walk or 3.3 mile run. Both options incorporate stops at murals celebrating iconic women including Kaliq Crosby’s mural of  Amanda Gorman reading of “The Hill We Climb,” and Rose Jaffe’s mural of the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

Following the run/walk, attendees will enjoy a Sip & Shop at the Yours Truly DC Hotel, boasting complimentary mimosas (courtesy of the hotel) and zero-proof beverages from Athletic Brewing Company. Homemade In DC will be selling light bites and other items including tote bags from Treat Yo Self. Homemade In DC is a woman-owned social enterprise that builds local wealth among women and People of Color through food entrepreneurship.

Free to attend, advance reservations recommended.

Multiple locations and dates / times 

Each week, VIDA Fitness locations will offer special themed classes in celebration of Women’s History Month.

Angela Jennings, Boombox Boxing Club
Bally Rizer, District Pilates
