2024 RIDC IMPACT REPORT
In this 2024 Impact Report, you’ll see how we built on our previous momentum, deepening our impact over the past year by expanding access to running, creating pathways to business ownership, and helping the industry move beyond intent to measurable action that benefits employees, entrepreneurs, and consumers alike.
Through 2024 initiatives like our ownership program RUN THE BLOCK, the Career Summit, and three community 5K run/walks held across the country, we reinforced the importance of centering the communities we serve. This isn’t just the right thing to do—it’s an investment that ensures growth in the running industry.
This year marks five years of the RIDC, a testament to the power of collective action and uncompromising commitment. Let’s celebrate how far we’ve come in the last five years and keep pushing for what’s possible when we move forward together.
2023 Impact Report
We’re united by a passion for and commitment to running and its ability to bring people together and serve as a tool for healing. In 2023, our love of running took on many forms—from hosting high-profile panels to leading local and global running events. Each of these events brought people together as a community to learn, unlearn, find inspiration, and center racial justice.
Our 2023 Impact Report marked a milestone because it was our first one ever, capturing the foundation and progress of the RIDC’s first three years. Click below to read all about it!
