About this race

RUN RICHMOND 16.19 is a cultural run-or-walk experience presented by the Djimon Hounsou Foundation, inviting participants to engage with 400+ years of Black history in Richmond, Virginia—in the very places where this history unfolded.

  • Runners and walkers can choose between two symbolic distances, 16.19K and 8K, and enhance their journey with a free, GPS-enabled educational audio guide narrated by two-time Oscar nominee Djimon Hounsou, bringing our shared history to life along the route.

  • We are a commemorative partner of VA250, the 250-year celebration of America, and the official race partner of BGR!’s Sweat With Your Sole National Conference.
