From the Organizer
Join us in supporting sobriety one stride at a time. Enjoy a four mile one-way run/walk, mostly along the beach bike path, from Valley Park in Hermosa Beach to an AA meeting (starting at 10am) in the sand in Redondo Beach. No medals. No chip timing. No swag. And no fees!
This free community-building event is hosted by Strides in Recovery. We are a local nonprofit which helps newly sober individuals grow physically, emotionally and mentally stronger so they can do their best at the hard work of recovery. We achieve these results by coaching people in Los Angeles County addiction treatment programs to complete events ranging from 5Ks to full marathons.
