Adidas Runners NYC
Brooklyn · Brooklyn
The vibe
Adidas Runners NYC is a brand-backed but community-first running collective led by captains including Jessie Zapo (Girls Run NYC founder) and Ameerah Omar (mindset coach and meditation teacher), who bring a performance-meets-personal-growth ethos to every run. The group runs all paces and actively programs for women through Girls Run NYC, with weekday speed sessions and long runs on weekends structured around goal races from 5K to marathon. The NYC chapter is distinct from other cities in its deep roots in the five boroughs — the 2023 'New York Together' apparel pack was co-created with community members and featured runs set in each of the five boroughs — and its ties to NYC's Black running community, including the 'Run By Us' series combining guided runs with a bazaar of Black-owned running and wellness businesses. Post-run culture orbits the adidas flagship stores in SoHo and Midtown, with special events including a NYC Marathon shakeout run through Central Park. Brand partnership is visible, but the captains are credentialed coaches who give runners actual training structure.
