Every movement has a symbol.
Ours is 261.
For nearly 60 years, that number has represented courage, determination, and the power of women to challenge limits and create change. What began as a single race bib has become a global movement that empowers women through running and education.
Today, 261 lives on through 261 Fearless, the only official organization connected to Kathrine Switzer’s legacy and the original meaning of 261.
Our name. Our logo. Our mission.
Together, they connect thousands of women around the world who are building confidence, discovering leadership, creating community, and proving that running is just the beginning.
Because 261 isn’t just where our story began.
It’s how we continue to move forward.
