The largest all-women’s sporting event in New England returns to Boston Common. Race registration is open online at www.boston10kforwomen.org,
The race brings girls and women from nearly 50 states to the Boston Common for a morning of wellness and racing, with participants hailing from all backgrounds and abilities.
The 2022 race marks the second year that REI has served as the presenting sponsor. The outdoor retailer, with five locations in Massachusetts, will bring months of pre-race programming, events, and engagement to runners.
The Boston 10K for Women is the second longest-running all-women’s race in the world, and since 1977 has attracted a world-class field of elite runners, while mothers, daughters, sisters, and friends celebrate women’s strength, speed, and solidarity. American Weini Kelati set an event record in 2021 with her 31:18 performance. The event features hours of pre-race and post-race athletic and wellness programming to complement the flat and fast 6.2-mile course through Boston’s Back Bay. The race will again offer more than $20,000 in prize money for top finishers.
