With just a few weeks until race day, don’t miss your chance to run in the Autism Speaks Potomac 5K! 

Hello John, 

We cannot wait to come together in-person on July 4th to show the world that the autism community runs on kindness. Whether you join us as an individual or are rallying your friends and family to form a team, your miles make a difference and this event won’t be the same without you! 

In addition to supporting a cause you believe in, your participation will also help create a kinder, more inclusive world for people with autism. Plus, with each registration, you will receive an official race t-shirt and commemorative finisher’s medal!

Can’t make it to Potomac for race day? No problem! Join us from wherever you are by registering using our virtual runner option. Whether you’re logging miles from a local park or on a treadmill, your miles will make an impact.

We hope you’ll register today – our community needs support now more than ever, and with you in our corner we know we can continue to enhance lives today and accelerate a spectrum of solutions for tomorrow.  

With gratitude, 

Susan Pereles RN, MPH – Race Director

Kisha James – Area Executive Director, National Capital Area
