Running for Water for Africa
The Running for Water for Africa 5K is an annual event held at Walnut Beach Pavilion in Milford, CT, celebrating its 14th edition in October. The race features a flat, scenic 3.1-mile course with one minor incline, suitable for runners and walkers of all abilities, starting and finishing near the beach. Additional events include a one-mile untimed walk along the beach and a free kids' fun run for children 12 and under.
The event supports a vital cause, funding a new well and water delivery system for a secondary school in Kitagwenda, Africa, where students currently rely on a dangerous stream for water. Participants enjoy a festive atmosphere with a raffle and awards for various age groups. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
