Important message from 261 Fearless


261 Fearless was born out of a moment when a woman was fearless in face of adversity. It is in this spirit, along with care for our 261 Coaches, members and their communities, that we suspend all in-person 261 Club Meet Runs and 261 Fearless Inc. Events and move to virtual activities.
Our 261 Fearless Inc. Team is working hard to look after the physical and mental wellbeing of our 261 Coaches, members and community and to develop models for everyone to keep engaged and connected. 261 Fearless Inc. continues to monitor the situation and will post regular updates. Let’s be #261fearLESStogether when facing this adversity!
We encourage you to stay active within your possibilities. That helps you to overcome these challenging days! And please – inspire and motivate others with your activities and positive spirit globally. We are all in this together! Tag 261 Fearless and use our #261fearLESStogether to spread the message.
