Beyond Gravel x R4R: Ride for Recovery
2026-05-24 09:00 - 12:00 UTC | CA
We’re honored to be the beneficiary of this year’s Beyond Gravel ride, a powerful community event supporting families facing breast cancer.
This ride is more than just miles — it’s deeply personal.
In December 2024, Katie passed away at just 39 after a five-year battle with metastatic breast cancer. During that time, Runway for Recovery supported Katie and her family with meals, childcare, and meaningful experiences that helped her boys create lasting memories with their mom. Today, we continue that work for families across our community.
How you can be part of it:
Beyond Gravel is a fundraiser — entry fees simply cover event essentials. Riders and supporters are encouraged to make a donation of any amount directly to Runway for Recovery. Every dollar makes a direct impact, and donations are tax-deductible and may be eligible for employer matching.
Join us in honoring Katie’s memory and supporting families who need it most.
Featured Route: The Dover Dash
Start Time: 9:00 AM
A beginner-friendly 6–8 mile out-and-back ride along the scenic Dover Rail Trail in New Hampshire. This nearly flat, packed gravel path is perfect for all levels — whether you’re riding, walking, or running. Great for families and anyone looking for an approachable introduction to gravel.

This special class at The Energy Barre is designed to get you moving, sweating, and feeling amazing. It blends barre-inspired movements with a full-body workout, cardio bursts, and powerful strength exercises that challenge your muscles and elevate your energy. Expect a mix of strength, stability, endurance, and power that will leave you feeling strong, empowered, and accomplished.
Beyond the workout, this class is about the energy in the room. You’ll be surrounded by an incredible community that makes everyone feel welcome, supported, and comfortable from the moment you walk in.
Feel free to bring your own mat if you’d like (we also have mats and equipment available at the studio). Bring water, come ready to sweat, and most importantly—be ready to have some fun!
If you have ever taken one of Brienne’s cardio dance classes, you already know the incredible joy and energy she brings to the room. We promise you will leave inspired, energized, and exhausted in the best way, and we cannot wait to see the community come together in late May.

The 20th Anniversary Runway Show, Boston
2026-10-29 18:00 - 22:30 (America/Halifax) | Westin Seaport Hotel, 425 Summer Street, Boston, MA, 02210, United States
Tickets and Sponsorships

Join us as we celebrate 20 years of Runway for Recovery at our most inspiring evening of the year.

The 20th Anniversary Runway Show is far more than a fashion show. It is a celebration of resilience, a tribute to those we have lost, and a powerful reminder that no family should face breast cancer alone.

This year, 125 extraordinary models will take the runway, representing every chapter of Runway for Recovery’s story. Our 20th Anniversary class includes returning models from each of the past twenty years, models from our Boston, New York City, and Southern California Runway Shows, members of our Boston Marathon team, inspiring first-time models, and every returning model living with metastatic breast cancer who wished to dance with us this year. We also made the intentional decision to expand the diversity of our Runway, creating space for voices and experiences that have too often been underrepresented. We are honored to welcome more women of color to this year’s class and are committed to building a Runway that more fully reflects the community we serve—for our 20th Anniversary and for generations to come. Together, these 125 individuals each bring a story of courage, hope, love, and perseverance.

For one unforgettable evening, more than 1,000 guests will come together to honor survivors, remember loved ones, and celebrate twenty years of Runway for Recovery. This year, we intentionally reduced ticket prices to make the evening more accessible and inclusive, ensuring that more families, friends, and supporters can experience the magic of the Runway. As a result, ticket sales are designed to cover the cost of hosting this extraordinary event at The Westin Boston Seaport District.

The true impact of the evening comes through philanthropy. Before the event, corporate sponsors, family foundations, and individual sponsors provide the critical support that sustains Runway for Recovery’s work throughout the year. During the event, our annual Paddle Raise becomes one of the most meaningful moments of the night, giving every guest the opportunity to invest directly in families navigating metastatic breast cancer and loss. Together, these gifts ensure that the support celebrated on the runway continues for the other 364 days of the year.

Whether you join us as a guest, sponsor, or donor, you are helping write the next chapter of Runway for Recovery’s story—and ensuring that families facing the unimaginable never have to face it alone.
