In this 2024 Impact Report, you’ll see how we built on our previous momentum, deepening our impact over the past year by expanding access to running, creating pathways to business ownership, and helping the industry move beyond intent to measurable action that benefits employees, entrepreneurs, and consumers alike.

The work of the RIDC is essential to the sport’s long-term success and the business of running. We know the barriers that limit participation, career growth, and economic opportunity for BIPOC communities, and we are committed to breaking those down. At our core, we are helping build an industry that reflects and serves the people who bring it to life—on the roads, on the trails, and in their neighborhoods.

This year marks five years of the RIDC, a testament to the power of collective action and uncompromising commitment. Let’s celebrate how far we’ve come in the last five years and keep pushing for what’s possible when we move forward together.
