Every runner has a story… what’s yours?
What gets you out the door? Who lifts you up when it gets hard? Who do you run for?

We want to hear it ALL — the why, the people, the moments that keep you going 💪

Message us your story and you could be featured on our WDF social media — because your story might be exactly what someone else needs to rise, too 💜👟

💙💗🤍 Today is Transgender Day of Visibility.
At the Women’s Distance Festival, we believe running is for everyone. Every story, every identity, every pace belongs here.
Today we celebrate the strength, courage, and contributions of the trans community—and we reaffirm that our race is a place where all women are welcome, supported, and celebrated.
Running has a powerful way of bringing people together. When we show up for each other, lift each other up, and create space where everyone feels safe to be themselves, we build the kind of community that truly matters.
Because when we stand together and support one another, we all rise.
💜 Together We Rise.

Your miles can make a difference.
Run with purpose. Run with heart. 💜

✨International Women’s Day✨

Today we celebrate the strength, resilience, and brilliance of women everywhere. On International Women’s Day, we’re reminded that when women support women, something powerful happens — we lift each other higher.

That spirit is exactly what the Women’s Distance Festival is all about. It’s more than a race. It’s a celebration of courage, community, and the incredible things women can do when we stand side by side.

Every runner who shows up — whether she’s chasing a PR, running her first mile, or simply showing up for herself — is part of something bigger. Every cheer, every smile, every step forward reminds us that we are stronger together.

When one woman rises, she inspires another.
When we run together, we go farther.
When we believe in each other, there is no limit to how high we can rise.

So today we celebrate the runners, the walkers, the volunteers, the cheer squads, the mothers, daughters, sisters, and friends who make this community so special.

💜 Together we run.
💜 Together we support.
💜 Together we rise.

Happy International Women’s Day — and we can’t wait to see you at the Women’s Distance Festival on 7.12.26

Last night was pure magic. ✨ Because of YOU—our runners, walkers, virtual movers, sponsors & cheerleaders—we raised $47,000 for the Center for Safety & Change. 💜

That number isn’t just dollars—it’s hope, safety, and compassion for those who need it most. Every step, every cheer, every single one of you made a difference.
