WEOFFTHECOUCH 🗣️

Bringing the energy again this year is Weoffthecouch! ⚡👏

Weoffthecouch began after a health scare motivated founder Anthony "Rock" Clary to start moving. Recognizing that financial, social, and cultural barriers keep many folks from getting active, WOTC was founded to make running accessible. They create access through free training runs and financial assistance for race entries and shoes. Most importantly, weoffthecouch has become a community of runners who connect, contribute, and conquer together. 💪

Join them on Mondays (Ladies Nights), Wednesdays, and Saturdays. Find them on Instagram, Strava, and Facebook (). When you run with weoffthecouch, no one is left behind.

Love thank you family 💪🏾🙌🏾💯🎉

If you haven't met them, you've seen them. If you haven't seen them, you've definitely heard them and felt their presence! 👏

Weoffthecouch was our largest group this year with a total of 156 runners that ran with us this past Saturday! Led by Anthony Clary and his training team coaches, WOTC represents Richmond well across all three distances every year by showing everyone exactly what community is all about. THANK YOU to the We Off The Couch team for keeping our community up and active, and cheering on each and every one of our runners! 🎉
