Prince George's County, your Friday mornings just got better. 👟
Fast Forward Fridays is officially coming from Haraka Run Club — and here's everything you need to know.
Every Friday morning, we're hitting the Rhode Island Avenue Trolley Trail for a ~3.5-mile loop. Show up between 5:30 and 5:50 a.m. to check in and register, and we roll out right around 6 a.m. sharp.
All paces are welcome. We mean it — no one gets left behind. Whether you're chasing a PR or just want to run with a crew that actually feels like community, there's a place for you on this run. Your fit specialists from Haraka will be leading the way.
This is the run you've been asking for. Early enough to get your miles in. Short enough to leave you wanting more. And with the right people around you to make Friday morning the best part of your week.
Register at the store or at haraka.run. Walk-in registration opens at 5:30 a.m., but we recommend getting there right when doors open — spots fill up and the trail waits for no one.

A bit of personal news: We are proud to announce that Jesse J. Holland III will be attending The George Washington University this fall as a chemistry major! He’s graduating DeMatha Catholic High School next week as an honor student, captain of the cross country team, a member of the National Honor Society, first chair tuba, all while holding down a part time job at Haraka Run and Walk and serving as the rabbit for the Wednesday Weekly Walk for the past year (the person in front that everyone chases!)
We are SO proud of Jesse and we can’t wait to see what he does next!

☀️ June just got faster. Starting June 1, all Nike and Brooks apparel in store is 30% off — all month long.
T-shirts, shorts, tights, running bras, socks, hats — if it's Nike or Brooks and it's on our racks, it's 30% off. When you come in for your new shoes, walk out with the gear to match.
A few things to know: the discount applies to apparel in store only (no special orders), and it runs the full month of June.
Then put it to work with us:
🚶🏽 Wednesday Weekly Walk — 7 p.m. every Wednesday. A relaxed, all-paces, all-ages walk that starts and ends at the store. No pressure, no one left behind — just good company and a few easy miles. Wednesday is the walk.
⚡ Fast Forward Friday — 6 a.m. every Friday on the Rhode Island Avenue Trolley Trail. An early-morning run to start your weekend ahead of everyone else. All speeds welcome — come move before the day gets going. Friday is the footrace.
New shoes, new gear, same crew.

Today is Memorial Day.
Before anything else, we honor the men and women who gave their lives in service to this country. They are why we have the freedom to lace up and run this morning. We hold their families close today.
And to those still here — still serving, or who served and came home, or who run toward emergencies the rest of us run from — we have something for you that starts today and doesn't end:
10% off everything at Haraka Run and Walk. Every visit. Permanent.
Active duty military, veterans, police, and emergency first responders. Valid ID at checkout. Cannot be combined with other discounts.
Our co-founder Carol Holland is retired Navy. This thank-you is from her — and from all of us.
Come see us when you're ready. We'll be here.

Fast. Forward.

An update from your Haraka family. 🌧️
For the first time since we launched our Wednesday Weekly Walk and Fast Forward Fridays, we had to cancel both events last week — and we don't take that lightly.
But when thunderstorms roll in and lightning starts looking for the tallest thing around, we're not about to let that thing be one of our people.
Our trails are beautiful precisely because they're lined with trees. That's what makes them peaceful on a sunny morning and awe-inspiring in the cool evenings. That's also what makes them dangerous when storms move in. We're not going to gamble with your safety to keep a streak alive.
Health and safety of this community will always come first. Full stop.
Here's what we need from you: follow on all platforms. When weather threatens our events, that's where you'll find the latest word — early, and before you lace up.
We'll be back on the trail Wednesday and Friday, weather permitting. But in the meantime — the store is open, the staff is ready, and whether you need a new pair of shoes, a gear refresh, or just want to talk running with people who get it, come see us at 5501 Baltimore Avenue, Suite 106 in Hyattsville.
No storms can keep Haraka down. We'll see you soon. ⚡🌿

This Memorial Day, Haraka Run and Walk is making a promise.
To every active duty service member, every veteran, every police officer, and every emergency first responder who walks through our doors — you get 10% off. Every visit. Every time. No paperwork, no expiration.
Our co-founder Carol Holland is a Navy veteran. She knows what the uniform asks of you, and what it asks of the families who wait. This discount isn't a one-day sale or a holiday gesture. It's a standing thank-you, built into how we do business — because the people who run toward danger deserve a store that runs toward them.
Valid ID required at checkout. Discount cannot be combined with other offers or promotions.
Come see us at 5501 Baltimore Avenue in Hyattsville. Get fitted. Walk with us Wednesday. Run with us Friday. We'll be here.
Fast. Forward.

Let's talk about something that doesn't get enough attention — your arch.
Every time you walk, jog, or run, your foot absorbs two to three times your body weight per step. And when your arch isn't supported, that impact doesn't stay in your foot. It travels up through your ankles, your knees, your hips, your lower back. That nagging soreness that just won't quit? It often starts at the ground floor.
The right insole changes everything.
At Haraka Run and Walk, we carry Currex and Superfeet — two of the best insole brands in the game. Low arch, high arch, neutral arch — there's a correct fit for your foot profile. Better shock absorption. Better alignment. A stride that actually feels good.
Come in and let us help you find your match. Try it in a shoe. Feel the difference for yourself.
And while you're at it — come move with the community:
🚶🏾 Wednesday Weekly Walk — every Wednesday at 7 PM
🏃🏽 Fast Forward Fridays — every Friday at 6 AM on the Rhode Island Avenue Trolley Trail
Your feet carry you everywhere. Let's take care of them.
