This May, 2016, thousands will be taking part in Run Your City, which is a national run campaign benefiting Amputee Blade Runners(ABR). The campaign is designed to get people, companies, run groups, classes, and teams involved in raising awareness for amputee athletes. Through the Run Your City campaign, participants will have the ability to be a part of Amputee Blade Runners and raise money for our next set of athletes. You can choose to run by yourself, with a group, a team, co-worker, or just with a few friends. Since Amputee Blade Runners is a team, we encourage you to make this a group event. We want people to be active and support a great cause in the process!

What is the Run Your City (RYC) Campaign? Run Your City was deisnged to get individuals, run groups, teams, & businesses involved in raising awareness for amputee athletes. The RYC Campaign is based around individuals hosting social runs in their cities and inviting others to join in the campaign to raise money & awareness. Amputee Blade Runners is an organization based upon helping amputees regain their active lifestyle, so this campaign was created to get individuals involved in the same activity that many of our team members practice....Running.
2015 was our 1st year to host the RYC Campaign and we had 20 social run locations around the country, raising just over $12,000. That amount of money allowed our organization to help 4 amputees realize their dreams of being active again and this year we have higher goals. Our goal is to have 50 social run locations around the country & raise $25,000, which would allow us to help 9 amputees receive free running legs!
When do I run? The RYC Campaign will take place during the WHOLE month of May, so there will be plenty of options to either choose a social run in your area, or host one yourself by clicking here: Host Run Your City Event
Where do I run? That's the beauty of this campaign. You can run where you live. Find someone either hosting a run during the month of May or grab some friends & start a run of your own!
How do I sign up? We will be launching our Event page on February 1st for individuals to sign up for the Run Your City Campaign.
How much does it cost to join the RYC Campaign? It doesn't cost anything, but we do encourage a $5 online donation so we can reach our goal of raising $25,000 to help more amputees Run Free!
Are these runs sanctioned? No, these runs will not be sanctioned or supported, but rather just a good social run to raise money & awareness for amputee athletes!
What will be the distance for each run? The distance for each run will be determined by the individual or group hosting the social run in your area.
How to Host a Run for the RYC Campaign? Please fill out the the above form & our team will post the info onto our event page once it launches on February 1st.
How many people do I need to host a social run? You can have 5 people, 50, or 100. If you are passionate about helping people & seeing this campaign grow, then hosting a social run is perfect for you.
How can I help? You can help by:
A. Committing to host a social run for the RYC Campaign
B. Sharing the RYC Campaign with friends & family
C. Signing up & donating to join the RYC Campaign once it launches on February 1st
How do I sign up?
At the top of the page, please click on the button 'Get Tickets.' You can join the campaign there and donate $5 that will go towards helping amputees realize their dreams of running! We also have the option to Join the Campaign, plus purchase a limited edition Run Your City Tshirt, for $33.
I Purchased a Tshirt but cannot find where to enter my size?
We will email you asking for size information as the time nears the start of the campaign.
When will the tshirts be printed & shipped?
All tshirts will be printed in early April & shipped in mid April, to make sure each participant has their tshirt on or before May 1st.
