This event has always been about outreach and honoring the memory of Susan “Sue B ” Newby who died in 2008 during a mysterious horseback riding incident, that was likely a domestic abuse incident. After her death, family and friends realized that SueB was likely in an abusive marriage. SueB’s sister, Marj, and friends, Leslie and Teresa, turned to the WCA as a way to honor SueB’s life and increase awareness about domestic abuse. Their hope is to help other successful, smart, beautiful women like SueB leave these relationships before it’s too late. Read SueB’s story here.

100% of participant race fees support the WCA’s Endowment Fund to ensure our services and serve our clients for many years to come. Join us on Sunday, October 6 in Julia Davis Park for a meaningful day of family-friendly community building!

Feat. a special performance by The Midnight Jazz Cats
