Inclusion In Motion

Inclusion in Motion is a 6-hour endurance event at Heckscher State Park where athletes of all abilities come together to promote inclusion and defy limits. 

Participants can run/walk solo, join a team, push an adaptive athlete, or be pushed as an athlete, completing as many 3.1-mile loops as possible, up to 26.2 miles (8 loops)! Or, if you'd like to choose a shorter distance, we also have a 100m dash for all abilities to cross the finish line! You have all 6 hours to race and spend time with community! 

Perks of our event:

• Fully accessible racecourse
• Adaptive changing tents
• Family fun games/activities
• Live music
• Food trucks 

Come join us for the day - whether you're racing for a marathon distance or just enjoying a few loops, every step helps create a more inclusive running community. Join us in celebrating determination, diversity, and the power of movement for all!

All proceeds go directly to helping provide grants to families and individuals for necessary medical equipment, services, home modifications, etc. not covered by insurance to improve the quality of their lives.
