Darcy Budworth didn’t wait for permission — she made her own lane. As the founder of Take the Bridge, she’s spent the last 10 years building an underground race series rooted in grit, creativity, and community. What started as a scrappy summer experiment in New York has now grown into a cultural touchstone for runners who crave something more personal, more present, and more free.
In this conversation, Darcy opens up about the journey from competitor to collaborator, the importance of creating space for women in racing, and the tough but necessary shift toward protecting her own peace. We talk about the thrill of unsanctioned races, the role of sponsors and integrity, and why slowing down might be the next phase of both movement and meaning.
Whether you’re a run-clubber, a trail dreamer, or just trying to stay aligned with your values, this one is a map for building something lasting on your own terms.
