Run Across America is a social enterprise dedicated to creating community and supporting great causes.

It all started in May 2020, as a group of friends came together to create something positive out of the pandemic. It's like the classic garage start-up story, just over Zoom.

Our goals are to create community across the country and support great causes like Feeding America along the way.  So far, we've hosted the following events and challenges in the Run Across America app:
