NYRR Contributors Circle

NYRR Contributors Circle was established to create a meaningful connection with, and dedicated spotlight on, diverse communities and important societal initiatives within the running community.

We introduced this community in 2022 with the intent to elevate the voices and stories of historically underrepresented members, notably female, BIPOC and gender non-conforming runners. In year two, NYRR continues to build on that mission introducing new voices and addressing non-traditional issues impacting our community today.

NYRR is honored to provide the forum for, and partner with, this insightful group of trusted community creators.
