RRCA Announces 2020 National Running Award Recipients

March 2, 2021

Arlington, VA– Since 1971, the RRCA has honored the service and dedication of outstanding leaders in the running community.  Even the face of a global pandemic, individuals and organizations made significant contributions to the sport in 2020 by keeping runners engaged and motivated; by having outstanding performances in events that occurred, by raising awareness about improving racial inclusion in the sport, and much more.

We are delighted to celebrate the RRCA National Running Award recipients at the upcoming RRCA National Running Awards Breakfast and Ceremony on April 17, 2021 in Orlando, Florida.
