Today, we honor Juneteenth, a day that commemorates the end of slavery in the United States and celebrates Black freedom, resilience, and achievement.

That history continues to be reflected in communities across the country. At SRPS, our community is shaped every day by Black students, mentors, families, alumni, staff, supporters, and partners whose leadership develops opportunities to persevere, pathways for empowerment, and strong support systems through running and mentorship.

As we celebrate Juneteenth, we honor the generations of people who have helped build lasting, connected communities that will continue to move us forward.

This week’s Medal Monday belongs to participants from Saturday’s Q***r Run Philly 5K. 🌈🏅

This race continues to be one of the most joyful races of the year, bringing together runners, volunteers, allies, and members of the LGBTQIA+ community for a day of celebration and belonging.

More than 350 SRPS students and mentors took part this year, joining an incredibly welcoming community and race day atmosphere.

Thank you to Q***r Run, the volunteers, runners and supporters who helped create such a positive experience for everyone.

When we’re not racing, we take our water station duties very seriously. 🫡
 
A big shoutout to our students and mentors who volunteered at this weekend, and kept the runners hydrated and motivated!
 
Our students love being part of the running community and having the chance to support runners from the other side of the water stop. Thank you to for having us!

We couldn’t have asked for a better day to be on the water!

A group of Junior Leaders recently spent an afternoon along the Schuylkill River learning the basics of rowing with . For most, it was their first time trying the sport and a chance to share a new experience together. Once they got on the water, they quickly learned that rowing is all about teamwork, trust, and shared effort.
 
Junior Leaders are SRPS alumni who return to support the next generation of students on their teams and are just a few years away from becoming mentors themselves. Along with receiving mentor training, they participate in leadership development and team-building opportunities like this and are such an important part of the larger SRPS community.
 
Thank you to for making it possible!

Happy Pride Month from all of us at SRPS 🌈

At SRPS, every runner is welcomed and celebrated for who they are. We honor that commitment in the way we support students and mentors, design our programs and events with OUTpace resources and trainings in mind, offer inclusive race registration options, and intentionally choosing the organizations and events we partner with who share these values.

We’re especially excited to continue partnering with  as the Q***r Run Philly 5K returns to FDR Park on June 13. 

We’re proud to be part of a running community that continues working to ensure LGBTQIA+ youth and runners know there is always a place for them here 💙💚

Know a student who should be at the SRPS Leadership Summit this summer? Are you a student interested in attending?

We’re inviting teams to nominate 1-2 students for this free weekend leadership experience taking place June 26-28. Leadership Summit gives students the chance to meet other runners in our program from across the city, build confidence, try new things, and grow as leaders.

This is a great opportunity to recognize students who have shown effort, leadership, growth, or commitment throughout the season.

Nominations close TODAY, May 27, so students interested in attending should connect with their running leader!
