A story

Hi, I am Jana Gallus, an associate professor at UCLA. I  have been a runner for a long time and particularly enjoyed events that brought runners together. And then came Covid-19 and thwarted future marathon plans.

Thankfully, I was not the only one who was looking for a running community. That’s how RunTheWorld was born. You can find impressions from our past runs here and on Twitter.

Sign up below to join us. Our community includes running aficionados as well as those who simply want to have fun and be active. Check out our Footprint and help us cover the globe.

Join us

We’ll run the world again, on March 16, 2025

By signing up you agree to participate in a large-scale social experiment – run with and by social scientists ;)
