Women’s Distance Festival 5K / Run After the Women 5K
In 1979, the Annapolis Strider’s parent club Road Runners Club of America started the Women’s Distance Festival in response to the lack of distance running events in the Olympics Games for women. Our women’s race was first run in 1980 and the “Run after the Women” for the men was added 5 years later.
