Some runners take their road races very seriously. If that’s you—well, maybe lace up your sneakers for some other 5K. If, on the other hand, you’re looking for a low-pressure opportunity to connect with other LGBTQ+ runners and walkers, hit the Road of Rainbows. This fundraiser for Boston Theater Company eschews hard rules and uber-competitiveness for inclusivity: it welcomes runners of all gender expressions, lets you choose whether you’ll be timed or not, and has a pay-what-you-can structure that allows folks of all economic means to participate. Plus, the route is comprised of three laps around Boston Common, so it’s easy to hop in or out anytime, depending on level of athleticism. So go ahead: walk this way.
