#WeRun313 #TwoMileTuesday #OutdoorRunning #VisitDetroit
It’s been a long time coming! 🏁🏁🏁
Four years ago, we began capturing the stories of our run club—its origins and the powerful journeys of the people within it—documenting how it sparked a movement and grew into a revolution of connection, community, and healing in the great city of Detroit.
WeRun313: The Pulse Of Detroit’s Run Club is a compelling book that captures the heart and soul behind Detroit’s premier run club—and the movement it sparked. More than a fitness group, We Run 313 is a revolution reclaiming space for Black runners in Detroit’s outdoors with power, pride, and purpose. What began as a personal mission has grown into a cultural force. Through vivid storytelling and intimate portraits, this book follows like-minded people of all ages, abilities, and economic backgrounds as they come together to fuel Detroit’s renaissance—from the east side to the west. Their personal stories reveal how running together fosters connection, healing, and both physical and mental well-being. Once strangers, these runners become family—supporting one another through hardship and celebration, sharing job leads, witnessing marriages, and volunteering side by side. We Run 313 documents the club’s joyful resistance and shows how community, movement, and love can re-envision the relationship between Detroiters and their city, pointing toward a brighter future for all. Shoutout to @wsupress for bringing our stories to life!

Detroit! Our 7th Annual Shoe Giveaway last week went off without a hitch, and the energy in the city was unmatched. We had 1,000+ people check in to get laced up, and seeing that many of you ready to move is exactly why we do this.
A massive thank you to our partners @Playmakersfit and @GazelleSports for helping us make this happen. We also want to give a huge shoutout to the City of Detroit Parks and Recreation Department and the City of Detroit for allowing us the space to serve and deliver to our community.
Now that you’ve got the gear, we want to see you put it to use! We hope these shoes carry you straight to the pavement to join us for some runs this season. Whether it’s your first mile or your hundredth, the movement is waiting for you.
Let’s keep the city in motion.

🤯 Two Mile Tuesday is back today at 6p meet us at @breadless
One week down, and the energy is already through the roof. 🏁🏁🏁🏁
Seeing hundreds of you back in motion for the opener last week reminded us why we do this. The vibes were unmatched, and we’re looking to see those same smiles on the pavement today.
If you’re new, pull up, this run is for everyone, no matter your pace or experience. We run one mile out as a squad, wait for everyone to finish, and then we all head back together. It’s family over everything.
See you today. We back outside!
Over 7,500 runners pulled up today for the I Ran The D 5K! 🎉
Y’all looked amazing out there! You see someone you know? Tag ‘em! 👀
Congratulations to everyone who hit a PR, completed their first race of the season, or ran their first race ever! Getting out on the course is the hardest part. 👏🏾
A special shoutout to our @WeRun313 volunteers, y’all kept the vibes high and the runners hydrated! 💦
See y’all at Two Mile Tuesday..we just getting started🫡🏁🏃🏾♂️

This year, we were proud to host the event on the @cityofdetroit ’s eastside at the @detroitparksrec Farwell Recreational facility, connecting with and supporting so many residents across the east side of the city.
Major thanks to the entire WeRun313 leadership team, club members, and our amazing volunteers for making sure everything ran smoothly for everyone who came out to receive a pair of shoes. Your dedication and community spirit continue to make this event special year after year. ♥️✨
