AIMS backs Global Running Day

For the last four years New York Road Runners (NYRR) has promoted ‘Global Running Day’ which this year falls on 5 June.

The objective is simple: to support and engage runners and running organisations in encouraging people to ‘make the pledge’ to run on Global Running Day. AIMS fully supports this initiative and urges members to consider organising events of their own in support of Global Running Day. NYRR have conducted outreach and developed materials for other organisers to use to celebrate Global Running Day in any way they wish. To see what is available consult the website www.globalrunningday.org

The site has been updated to allow teams to create their own “team page” and pledging goals. This is just one of the tools being used to facilitate the participation of organisations large and small. NYRR and AIMS support any and all organisations and activations planning celebrations on Global Running Day.
