It might be tough to run in stockings and heels but I’m sure there’s some rainbow running shorts or socks to be had for this Saturday’s Pride Run.
The feast of muscled legs and white sneakers begins at the very gay-friendly time of 11 am at the SW side of the Morrison Bridge. Registration is $15 for an individual, $25 for a family and includes a short-sleeved t-shirt, water bottle, water break along the course, and a post-race breakfast of bagels and cream cheese. Family rate includes individual race numbers and water bottles, plus one t-shirt.
The Pride Run is the loop around the Waterfront, head south, then go up and over the Hawthorne and back over the Steel Bridge. It’s a great way to kick off–or step off–Pride healthfully! It’s all paved and mostly flat except for the ramp up onto the Hawthorne Bridge.
ALL skill levels are welcome–hard-core runners, walkers, families with kiddos, and I’m sure folks will bring pups as well. (Just wait for the runners to pass you first!)
