Run a 5K, then cool down with a handwhisked matcha. That was the whole plan for our Matcha Run with The Ratty Run Club, and the community showed up for it.
The Ratty Run Club is a social running club based in Queens, built around NYC's Asian community. Every run is all paces welcome, so it felt like a natural fit for us. For this one we met at McCarren Flea in Williamsburg, ran a casual 5K together, and treated everyone to free iced matcha at the finish line.
Nobody was racing the clock. The whole morning was about meeting new people and hanging out after the run, whether it was your first 5K or your fiftieth.
We're so honored to work with local businesses like these to bring meaningful and fun experiences to our city.
