RUN RICHMOND 16.19

Let us take you on a journey through more than 400 years of Black history at RUN RICHMOND 16.19. This is a cultural community event for all ages and abilities. Choose between a 16.19K Run or a 6.19K Run/Walk—no matter your pace, unless you are on crutches, you will make it to the finish line on time!

Run Richmond 16.19 culminates in a vibrant finish festival featuring live music, drum circles, a vendor village, a Black history pop-up exhibit, and a living museum experience—where young African American children bring historical figures to life. Bring your family, friends, and kids to this one-of-a-kind celebration of Unity in Diversity, Black culture, and community.

This event is organized by the Djimon Hounsou Foundation in close collaboration with the Black History Museum of Virginia and Sports Backers. And yes—Djimon Hounsou will be attending in person!
