So join us and thousands of other women on the starting line for a one-of-a-kind night race, in a city that’s one-of-one. The kind of run you can look forward to and a legendary post-race concert to celebrate, together. Where the finish line is just the start to a weekend of music, style and connections that can only happen here.
