More than 400 runners joined us on July 17, 18, & 19, 2020 to help support our mission to keep Virginia’s wild places wild. They came from all over the state—they even came from different parts of the country—but they all came together with a shared purpose, to Run for the Wild! Each of their names are proudly listed below as being part of this inaugural event.
