DOWN SYNDROME AWARENESS, #stoptraffic4ds
The only event dedicated to Down Syndrome Awareness that stops traffic in the nation's capital. #stoptraffic4ds
Recently named the 2020 BEST 5K by RunWashington, Race4Respect™ 5K & 1K Kids Dash was founded on the belief that if given an opportunity to experience an event together with someone who has Down syndrome, or any other disability, it will help to eliminate negative stereotypes and judgments. These are the people that will one day be more inclined to hire these individuals, help them at the bus stop, chat with them at a coffee shop, or simply believe in their ability before automatically dismissing them as unable. Race4Respect™ offers a USATF sanctioned 5K, 1K Kids Dash and a Virtual Race Option on the most coveted course in Washington, DC. This is a family friendly event with beautiful views!
