Come on out how ever you are. This year we will be returning to holding the run the morning of PrideFest. The start location is to be determined but where ever it is, there will be joy and Pride and your participation will create meaningful change.
Every Rainbow Run registration counts. Your participation in the 9th Annual Run/Walk for Equality will help to build a safer and more inclusive community in the city of Davis and surrounding communities.
Why the Run/Walk for Equality
On March 10, 2013, local Davis resident Lawrence “Mikey” Partida was the victim of a violent hate-crime, targeted for his sexuality. An avid long-distance runner, Mikey relied on his love for running to help get him through the months of physical therapy and rehabilitation that were required after his assault, and back to his life. As a result, the Run/Walk for Equality was created as a way to honor and commemorate the experiences of those whose lives have been forever changed by bigotry and intolerance.
The Davis Phoenix Coalition board of directors and the Davis Pride planning committee invites runners and walkers alike to help raise awareness about the ongoing efforts needed by communities to prevent hate-motivated crimes.
