Event summary
Join us for the inspiring event, "And We Still Run," on Sunday, February 23, 2025, in Montclair, Essex. This powerful 2.23-mile run commemorates Ahmaud Arbery, who tragically lost his life while jogging on this day in 2020. For the past four years, runners and walkers worldwide have come together to honor his memory and advocate for racial equality.

Participants will gather at Nishuane Park at 8 AM, where they will embark on a 2.23-mile route leading to Sankofa Cafe, where Brooks will provide complimentary coffee and cocoa. Every registration fee and donation will directly support the BLACK MEN RUN Foundation, dedicated to promoting health and wellness among African American men through running. Join us as we run in solidarity, celebrate our community, and continue the vital call for justice and equality. Don't miss this chance to be part of a movement that promotes unity and positive change!
