If you havent logged your miles yet today on the trails, track or treadmill, there are still a few more hours to get out and celebrate World Run Day, an annual running event that celebrates running and charitable giving.
The event was created in 1999 by Long Island runner Bill McDermott, who dedicated it to his brother killed in an automobile accident on Nov. 8, 1983. Since then, World Run Day takes place on the Sunday closest to November 8 to commemorate the date, and has counted more than 10,000 runners as participants over the years.
World Run Days mission is to broaden and promote the health benefits of running while also encouraging runners to donate to their favorite charity with the objective of promoting a healthy future for both young and old. Its the only event of its kind celebrated simultaneously around the globe with group events, both large and small, in cities such as San Francisco, London, Sydney and even Afghanistan.
Each year, World Run Day event organizers and participants hope to further the sport by helping to:
- Promote running Partner organizations highlight the health benefits of running for all citizens young and old, with recent emphasis being placed on running as a solution to end childhood obesity.
- Encourage charitable giving The event serves as a rallying cry throughout the running community to help others who are the victims of natural disasters, disease, or any other cause deemed worthy by participants.
- Mobilize the running community World Run Day reaches out to partners in the running community that hope to elevate the sport of running while promoting its benefits and providing locations for people to run locally.
- Offer event director tools Free resources are available to local event directors to use free of charge to produce a World Run Day event in their location.
- Inspire future running leaders A campus outreach program is intended to inspire members of a younger generation to lift the torch for youth runners around the globe. Getting runners within colleges and universities to participate is a goal that can combine the efforts of community service with local charity.
