This Year’s Race: October 27th
Mark your calendars for Sunday, October 27, 2024, and get ready to hit the scenic streets of Belmont, Massachusetts, while supporting a fantastic cause: enhancing the educational experience for Belmont’s public school students.
The 5K race is an excellent opportunity to test your endurance while running through the picturesque neighborhoods of Belmont. Whether you’re chasing a personal best or simply aiming to finish, the course promises a great balance of challenge and community spirit. With the updated route that winds through the Winn Brook neighborhood, the Apple Run offers a great opportunity to run your best time – and take your Halloween costume for a spin, with an awards ceremony following the completion of the 5K and 2K races and prizes for the top three male and female finishers in each race, as well as to top teams and best costume!
If you’re competitive, now’s the time to gather your friends, colleagues, or family members and form a team to join the race! Even if competition isn’t your thing, the joy of being part of such a meaningful event, surrounded by like-minded people, will make your experience unforgettable.
Kids and Families: Check Out the 2K Run!
For younger runners and families, the 2K event provides a shorter, equally fun race experience, making the day accessible to participants of all ages and fitness levels. You can run, walk, or even push a stroller through the course, ensuring that everyone feels welcome. Plus, with race-day excitement and the joy of knowing your registration supports a worthy cause, you’ll walk away feeling accomplished and uplifted.
