Join us for the 1st Annual Newtown Community Running Event, a fun and inspiring day for runners, walkers, families, and supporters of youth sports. This event brings the community together for a great cause—helping local children participate in sports programs, teams, and activities they might not otherwise be able to afford.
Whether you’re chasing a personal best, enjoying a scenic walk, or simply supporting a meaningful mission, this event is for everyone. With multiple race distances, a welcoming atmosphere, and a shared purpose, it’s the perfect way to get active and give back.
All proceeds from the event will go toward funding youth sports participation, providing scholarships, equipment, and opportunities that help kids stay active, build confidence, and be part of a team.
Come run, walk, cheer, and be part of something special as we kick off what will become a beloved annual tradition.
