Bringing in the new year with exciting news! Announcing our Student Brand Ambassador Program for 2021! Remote ambassadorship open to all HBCU students! Deadline to apply is Feb. 1. Link in bio! https://t.co/4dkdbW5rl7
Yes! I am also running this virtual race. If you want to join my team we are Prickly Ponderosas (a blatant rip off of @stevensjt’s name for our intramural soccer team some years ago). Support @HBCUsOutside and do a little apart-together activity with your friends!
JOIN US! We are stoked about the #BlackToTheTrails5k this month to raise $ for @HBCUsOutside, a non-profit that helps HBCUs diversify the outdoors. Join team "GOALS UC-Davis" when you register, and walk, run, push that stroller, or use your adaptive device, for 3.16 miles!
“In sharing my story, my goal was to help them understand theirs.” Ron Griswell shares why he started @HBCUsOutside: to become the outdoor role model he needed when he was younger. Read about their retreat to the Blue Ridge Mountains: https://t.co/25iWsSH5qT 📷: Cliford Mervil
One of Ron Griswell’s earliest memories is seeing the Smoky Mountains through a car window. Now, as a backpacking guide and founder of @HBCUsOutside, Ron remains partial to the mountains of the East. Learn more about Ron and gear up for backpacking: https://t.co/Kdnk1FRBgx
We're thrilled to announce our new 2020-2021 virtual race circuit today. While we can't run together still in person, we can be friendly competitors. We're also excited to include a new race, the #BlackToTheTrails5k as part of our circuit. Learn more here: https://t.co/xtEMgv3dWZ
Another hashtag we have is #Fiercest5k for support of LGBTQIA+ communities, #AllAbilities5k in support of people with disabilities, and #Trashiest5k to encourage people to pick up trash along their route. Check out all of them at

Another thing to note is to use our hashtags if you want to compete. We have the basic stuff #fastest5k and #craziest5k but we also have the #cutest5k to encourage you to get out with your furry and non furry children, and/or grandparents
One really cool way to engage family, friends, followers, and the community is that you can register as a team. We currently have team #AggiePride, BKTC, @biolitestove, @merrelloutside and more. I want to see HBCUs, Churches, Greeks, and other orgs getting in on the fun.
