Event Details

We also will feature a DJ, prizes, team slideshow and more.
The Mirnavator
We are so excited to welcome ultrarunner, adventurer and author Mirna Valerio as a special guest during our LIVE virtual post-race party. At Moms on the Run, we like to say if you run, then you're a runner. Ultrarunner Mirna Valerio would agree with that, as she redefines what it looks like to be a distance runner.
​
In 2017, Mirna's story went viral and she was subjected to both praise and public scrutiny. "Despite racism and body-shaming, she continues challenging stereotypes and inspiring others to do the same," says National Geographic, one of the many national media outlets that have shared her story.  Now an adventurer and author, Mirna will be interviewed as a special guest at our LIVE virtual post-race celebration event on Aug. 23.
