Why a Women's Race Our mission is to create a women’s event that motivates and inspires women to get active, fit and involved. For some women participating in this race, the motivating factors are the opportunity to run in a supportive and friendly environment and to socialize with other women runners. Competitive female runners tend to feel that they are the “chase” group. An all women’s race lets them experience the rush of being first across the finish line instead of being the first woman across the finish line. Regardless of what motivates you to cross the finish line, it is the collective power of the group all supporting one another that will make this race so unique and memorable.
