Looking for a great race to kick off 4th of July weekend for a great cause? Just looking for a fun race to run with friends and family? Then this is for you!

This year we are hosting a Make-A-Wish CT 5k Road Race in Beacon Falls, CT with its partner Make-A-Wish CT 5k Road Race #2 in Plainfield, CT! These two events now form the Make-A-Wish CT Charity 5k Partner Road Races. Come join us on Saturday, July 3rd for race #1 in Beacon Falls and on Sunday, July 10th for race #2 in Plainfield for two weekends of making a difference! Proceeds from each of the races will go directly to Make-A-Wish CT to help grant wishes for children with critical illnesses!

Beacon Falls is a small, rural town located near the Naugatuck River and is populated with hilly, forested roads. This portion of the Make-A-Wish CT Charity 5k Partner Road Races will start and end at Beacon Falls Recreation Complex and feature a out-and-back hilly (but not too hilly!) 5k route along the roads of Beacon Falls. This race will be run (tentatively) on July 3, 2021.

The town of Plainfield is a small Connecticut town located in Windham County. This portion of the Make-A-Wish CT Charity 5k Partner Road Races will consist of an all paved route through a forested area starting and ending at Plainfield High School. This race will be run (tentatively) on July 10, 2021.
