WASHINGTON, D.C. — October 12, 2026 — HBCU House and Amazon Prime brought movement, music, culture, and connection to Manifest in Washington, D.C., for The Greatest Mile, kicking off Howard Homecoming Week with 1867 Run Club.

Celebrating The Greatest, Prime Video’s upcoming Muhammad Ali series, the experience drew inspiration from Ali’s legacy of confidence, discipline, and purpose.
