It was never intended to be just another networking event.

The inaugural LIT 5K Run, Walk & Roll presented by Keolis was designed to be a celebration of people — and that's exactly what it became. 63 participants. Countless memories. One unforgettable morning in Salt Lake City.

May's Café Con LIT is here, and we're bringing in someone who knows this space inside and out.

We're sitting down with Aida Berduo Berry, MPA, Vice President of Advisory & Planning Services and Civil Rights Practice Lead at WSP, for a conversation on something the transit industry can't afford to overlook: DBE and Civil Rights program implementation.

We'll dig into compliance strategies, real agency challenges, and where things are headed - the kind of conversation you don't always get in a conference room.

If you work in transit, planning, compliance, civil rights, or the small business space, this one's for you.

Join us for the LIT 5K Run, Walk, or Roll — a fun, high-energy, non-competitive event celebrating workforce development in transit and inspiring the next generation of transit and STEM careers.

This isn’t just a race — it’s a movement.

Whether you're running the full 5K or participating in the 1-mile option, you’re showing your support for expanding career pathways in public transportation, advancing innovation, and building a strong workforce for the future of mobility.

Wear your favorite transit swag or come in a transit-inspired outfit!
Rock your agency gear, safety vest, hard hat (for photos!), rail-inspired colors, bus graphics, or STEM-themed attire. Let’s make this a visible celebration of the professionals who keep our communities moving.

This event brings together transit professionals, conference attendees, students, and community members who believe in the power of transit careers — from operations and planning to engineering, technology, maintenance, and leadership.

All fitness levels are welcome — walk, roll, jog, or run at your own pace while connecting with colleagues and champions of workforce development.

Set against the impressive scenery of Memory Grove Park, one of the most beautiful parks in the United States, you’ll enjoy peaceful trails and stunning mountain views as we kick off Mobility Week with purpose and energy.

A special thank you to Keolis for presenting this first-of-its-kind 5K race and supporting the future of transit careers.
