Did you know that there’s a local group geared toward supporting people who live vegan and vegetarian lifestyles? The Plant-Powered Runners Sunday Run is a weekly event that invites runners of all types—you don’t have to be vegan or vegetarian—to run and nosh on post-run vegan snacks. Runners meet up at various trails and parks around the area, and typically have a few route options to choose from. It’s a fun way to meet new people, while also spending time in an outside, socially distanced environment. All paces and people are welcome. Email emily.mccloskey@gmail.com to get more deets—or find the group, Plant-Powered Runners, on Facebook.
