Let's Lift The Curfew 5k run

About the event

On October 28, 2026, runners will gather for a unique and empowering 5k run designed specifically for women, part of the This Girl Can initiative. The race aims to challenge the unwelcome curfew that many women experience as evening falls, promoting safety and freedom in public spaces after dark. Participants will navigate through well-lit city streets, illuminated by vibrant lights and cheering crowds, creating a safe and encouraging environment. Along the route, runners can expect motivational signs and supportive messages from community members, highlighting the importance of breaking barriers and reclaiming nighttime spaces for all women. This event not only celebrates female empowerment but also fosters a sense of solidarity among participants as they run together under the stars.
The race is more than just a physical challenge; it's an opportunity to make a statement about personal freedom and safety, with every stride taken in support of breaking gender-specific curfews.
