Join us in commemorating the life and legacy of the great Civil Rights leader, Martin Luther King Jr., on his dedicated federal holiday, January 15, 2024. In honor of his profound impact, we are proud to present our fourth annual "I Have A Dream" virtual race!
Throughout the month of January 2024, including the significant date of January 15th, you can take part in our "I Have A Dream" virtual races. Choose from various distances, including 1M, 5K, 10K, 13.1, and 26.2, and complete the race at your convenience, anywhere you prefer.
Your participation not only celebrates the incredible contributions of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., but it also contributes to a meaningful cause. A remarkable 15% of each registration fee will be donated to the Equal Justice Initiative (EJI). The EJI is dedicated to ending mass incarceration and excessive punishment in the United States, challenging racial and economic injustice, and safeguarding basic human rights for vulnerable individuals in American society. Their transformative work is truly inspiring, making a positive impact on countless lives.
As a token of this momentous occasion, each participant will receive a limited-edition race medal featuring a poignant quote from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., "Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase."
Your registration fee of $20 includes the race medal, a bib, and a significant portion donated to the EJI. By participating, you become a part of this movement to support social justice and equality.
Race packages will be shipped out starting mid-December 2024, with subsequent shipments sent within 2 to 5 days after registration.
