Stone Arch Bridge - Downtown Minneapolis - Under 1 mile run.
What It Is
Red Undie Run is a premier community event that brings awareness to World AIDS Day and the work of The Aliveness Project, Minnesota's leading community based organization of services, advocacy, and education for people living with or at risk for HIV. The route is just over a mile run across the iconic Stone Arch Bridge in Downtown Minneapolis. Please arrive on the Mill Ruins (downtown) side of Stone Arch Bridge by 12 pm and be ready to strip down to your red undies. Every body is welcome!
How It Works
On the day of the event, make sure you arrive early to check in. Then after the run get warmed up at the Eagle BOLT Bar. We’ll provide clothing checks, changing booths, and plenty of selfie ops. We are all HIV advocates this World AIDS Day by Stripping Down and Shedding Stigma. Read FAQs Here

Volunteers are needed for a number of roles including registration set up, Check-in, Gear-check Elves, and route marking/monitoring! Sign up to volunteer and we will contact you to discuss your shift preferences and timing.
