Boston 10K for Women

We're excited to announce Rochelle Solomon as one of our incredible Boston 10K for Women Ambassadors!

For Rochelle, running is more than a sport—it is a platform for connection, advocacy, community, and creating space for others to be seen and celebrated. Her commitment to creating a more inclusive and supportive running community guides her work on and off the course.

Currently, and among other running leadership engagements, she serves a coach and associate board member for Girls on the Run Greater Boston , and she actively supports the local Black Girls RUN! Boston - two of our 2026 Charity Partners!

Give her a wave on race day! 👋

Today's Winner Wednesday post is coming to you on a Monday because it's Molly Huddle's birthday! 🎂🎁🥳

Molly is a 5-time Boston 10K for Women champion (winning in 2008, 2009, 2010, 2015, and 2019)!

In 2019, Molly broke from the pack at Commonwealth Ave. and powered home to Charles Street to clinch the win. Beyond our race, Molly is a 2x Olympian, a 28-time USATF National Champion, and a former American record holder in both the 5K and 10K.

And fun fact: Molly Huddle led a campaign for Apple to create the female running emoji, which was released in 2016. 🏃‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏼‍♀️🏃🏾‍♀️🏃🏿‍♀️

Happy Birthday to this running legend!

Let's give it up for Adina Crawford! From hosting pre-race warm-ups to joining us at our Run Clubs, she is an absolute powerhouse. And we're happy to feature her in our Women Powered by Withings campaign!

What started as “just a race” became something much more for Adina Crawford.

For five years, the Boston 10K for Women has marked her growth—through strength, setbacks, and everything in between.

Some days she showed up confident. Other days, carrying more than miles.

But she always showed up. This October, she returns—reminding us that resilience is built by choosing yourself, again and again.

The one and only Katonya Burke is BACK as one of our Boston 10K for Women Ambassadors!

Katonya began her long-distance running journey at age 40, and she was the first person selected for the 2020 Boston Marathon Honorary Team, which marked her first marathon. She has since earned a Six Star Medal, which is given to runners who have completed the original six major marathons (Chicago, New York, Berlin, London, Boston, and Tokyo).

She is also one of Boston’s co-ambassadors for Black Girls RUN!, and received the 2022 Myra Kraft MVP award, which recognizes volunteers for going above and beyond to give back to their communities. Alongside her passion for running and community service, Katonya can be found behind the wheel of her “BIG RIG" aka a 53′ tractor and trailer.

Way to go, Buttercup! 🌼

Let's give a warm welcome back to Girls on the Run Greater Boston to our Official Charity Program!

GOTR inspires young girls to be their most authentic selves through fun, experience-based after-school programs. Led by trained coaches, participants build confidence, develop social-emotional skills, and discover the lifelong benefits of physical activity while learning to navigate the challenges of adolescence.

You can learn more at their website!

Our next Winner Wednesday is the amazing Erika Kemp! 🌟✨

This running phenom is a 2x Boston 10K for Women champion (taking the crown in both 2022 and 2024 with a blazing 31:48 PR!). 🏃🏾‍♀️💨

Erika was a 6x All-American while at NC State, and later started her professional career at the 2019 USA 15K Championship, which she won with a time of 50:54. She is also a multi-time U.S. National Champion (15K & 20K), the fastest American-born Black female marathoner in history, and a dedicated mentor to mentor to young distance runners. Beyond the race course, you can catch this on her podcast Relay, practicing latte art, or experimenting with recipes.

Tomorrow is the LAST DAY to select the bib mailing option for the 50th running of the Boston 10K for Women!

For an additional $10, you can have your bib shipped to your address to avoid pick-up lines. Runner shirts will not be mailed, and can be picked up in person before the race or on race day. Again, the bib mailing option will close at midnight tomorrow.

We are thrilled to reintroduce Cara Gilman as one of our incredible Boston 10K for Women Ambassadors!

Cara is a yoga teacher, run coach, mother of two, and an all-around powerhouse in the Boston running community. Her passion for sharing the gifts of running and yoga with others is shaped by her experience with motherhood, which taught her that running and yoga are powerful ways to authentically connect with oneself.
