The SRC was founded in 2009 by VA residents Mirentxu Meyer and Shirley Santos, for like-minded people with social interests. Inspired by our founders, the goals of SRC are to promote fitness and build a sense of community. With currently over 2,800 people who've joined over the years, the SRC meets every Tuesday evening at 6:30 PM at Dudley's Sport and Ale to run a 5K summer route (6K in the winter), and hosts a post-run happy hour by savoring the flavors of Shirlington’s Dudley's Sport and Ale and socializing! In addition to fostering a community and family feel, SRC brings its members together throughout the year with other neighborhood events, sport activities, and volunteer opportunities. We welcome all levels of runners, from the beginners to the experienced marathoner, at all ages, and from all locations.

Food has always been one of the most powerful ways to bring people together. Join Interfaith Connections at the Table, a relaxed multi-faith meal where participants from different spiritual and cultural backgrounds gather to share food, conversation, and stories. In the spirit of [World Interfaith Harmony Week](https://worldinterfaithharmonyweek.com/), we’ll explore how food, tradition, and hospitality shape our identities and values — all in a warm, welcoming environment. There will be light facilitation and optional reflection prompts, but the focus is on connection, not programming. What to Expect: * Shared meal at a local restaurant * Interfaith-friendly, inclusive atmosphere * Conversation about culture, faith, and community * No speeches, no pressure — just presence Important Notes: * Attendees cover the cost of their own meal * Space may be limited based on reservations Location: [Dolan Uyghur Restaurant](https://www.dolanuyghur.com/), 3518 Connecticut Ave NW, Washington, DC 20008
