The 2023 Cloud Run is an event that invites the community to run with the people that build and support the IT backbone of the cloud. Visit www.7x24dc.org/2023-cloud-run to learn more.
Start the day with a 1-mile Fun Run and 4.99999k run/walk around Data Center Alley and stay for the full experience! Once the race is finished, there will be a post-race awards ceremony and celebration with food trucks, a vendor expo, and live music. If exercising is not on the table, bring the family to experience the Data Center Discovery Zone hosted by the Data Center Coalition. The Discovery Zone will be open from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. and will have hands-on activities and interactive opportunities to learn everything about data centers from experts.
