Enjoy a morning of good, healthy fun in the great outdoors at the 7th Annual Grace Cottage Hospital “Spring into Health” 5K on Saturday, May 7th. The family-friendly 5K starts at 8:30 am on the Townshend Common. The race will be timed for competitors, but is open to all, whether you run, jog, walk, roll, or stroll. The course is 3.1 miles of mainly flat, paved road along Grafton Road (Route 35).
After the race, there will be awards, raffles, and general merriment. There is also a free Fun Run for kids 8 and under on the Common at 9:15. The event, held rain or shine, wraps up around 10:30.
Register online for an early bird rate of $15/13 & up (free for those 12 and under!) at www.gracecottage.org/events or by calling (802) 365-9109. Online registration closes at noon on Wednesday, May 4. The first 100 to register will receive a free performance t-shirt designed by Leland & Gray student Joel Emmons. You can register at the race for $20/13 and up (still free for 12 and under), but no guarantees on getting a t-shirt!
