Hi, I’m Emily, the founder of NYC Runs Wild. I created NYC Runs Wild with the mission of making movement more accessible, social, and welcoming for everyone, regardless of pace or experience level. What started as a passion for running and building community has grown into a space where people can meet new friends, challenge themselves, and create meaningful connections through shared experiences.

As a runner myself, I understand how intimidating fitness spaces can feel, which is why NYC Runs Wild focuses on creating a supportive environment where everyone feels like they belong. Through beginner friendly runs, local collaborations, and community events, my goal is to bring people together and show that running is not just about the miles, but the memories and connections made along the way.
