RUNNING WITH PURPOSE: This carries so much meaning individually and for community, however, and it represents the strength and resilience of community. At the intersection of running and advocacy, more and more runners, walkers, and athletes are using their voice with their passion of movement, to advocate for what they believe in and fight for. In June 2021 - Rising Hearts formed a running collective focused on social change and how we use running as a platform for advocacy and awareness of the things most important to us. For some, it can be through prayer runs to raise awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Relatives, Black lives, Representation, Justice, Equity, Diversity, Safety, Inclusion, Body positivity, and more, for the next generations, and other issues. Through this collective, we learn from and support as much as we can, 33 Athlete Advocates who carry and move, with this passion. To learn more about our heart work and how to support us, visit www.risinghearts.org/runningwithpurpose.

Miles For Justice is a grassroots social justice initiative working to build more equitable communities throughout the United States one locale at a time. Our ultimate goal is to bridge the opportunity gap and create a level playing field for all people regardless of race, economic status, or industry. We move closer to that goal by creating space and opportunity for marginalized groups through education and athletics. Our founder, Mr. Murphy runs 5km (3.1mi) every day (since 4/13/2020) as a form of resistance and silent protest against oppression while raising awareness on the inequalities that perpetuate the status quo. The 5k a day run streak is the driving force behind Miles For Justice and will continue until the economic disparities and opportunity gaps in American society subside.
