About this event
Alison Desir is multi-talented: a founder, a doer, an activist, a connector, a visionary, and an unapologetically straightforward communicator with a passion for movement, mental health, and racial equity. Alison got her start in the running and outdoor industry unintentionally, after seeing a Black friend train and complete a marathon. Inspired, Alison went on to run her first marathon and discovered that she had found a powerful tool to manage her depression. She’s been working to share the transformational power of running and movement ever since. Join us for the "Running While Black" Book Club lead by Alison Desir herself!
