Accessibility Statement

Last updated · July 20, 2026

Our commitment

GRYT Club is committed to making the Run Takoma With Love 5K and grytrun.com welcoming and usable for as many people as possible, including people with disabilities. This page is maintained by GRYT Club to describe the accessibility of this site and event.

On the website

We aim to align this site with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA. Current practices include:

  • Semantic HTML landmarks and a single main content region on each page.
  • Text alternatives on meaningful images and labels on all form fields.
  • Keyboard-navigable controls with visible focus states.
  • Color choices intended to meet AA contrast on body text and controls.
  • Responsive layout that works on mobile, tablet, and desktop.

Accessibility is ongoing work — if you find something that doesn't meet these goals, please let us know.

On event day

The 5K course runs on public streets and paths in Takoma Park. Walkers, strollers, adaptive athletes, and supporters at any pace are welcome. If you need a specific accommodation — accessible parking, a start-line assist, an ASL interpreter for announcements, or something else — email us in advance so we can plan with you.

Third-party content

Some features rely on third parties (for example Strava for club connection). We don't control the accessibility of those external services, but we're happy to help you complete any step another way — just reach out.

Feedback & contact

If you run into an accessibility barrier on this site or at the event, email hello@grytrun.com. Please include the page or situation and what would help. We aim to respond within 5 business days.
