关于赛事
Registration opening 2/1. This will be an empowering event, not a competitive one. Women coming together to challenge themselves to run, walk or run/walk 2. 5 miles and be proud of the accomplishment. It will look different for each of us and that is ok! Custom award medals at the finish line. There will be beautiful shirts for sale (StrongHer Long Island and Moms Run Long Island)- 100% of proceeds from sales go to youth of Long Island. Save the date
Let's start with why:
1. To have fun, challenge yourself and dedicate some time to you and your health. A 2.5 mile walk, run, or walk/run performed in a way that pushes you out of your comfort zone and makes you proud is a powerful part of your self care. Come join other women in this journey of making time for ourselves and be proud of our accomplishments.
2. To support our LONG ISLAND YOUTH in developing self confidence, leadership skills and an understanding of giving back through community work. Funds raised through the non-profit, Kids Run Long Island, are used for youth scholarships and LI youth community grants. Take a moment to check out Kids Run Long Island and by registering for this event, be part of the projects that make our Long Island strongHer.
2.5 mile walk, run or walk/run, depending on what is a challenge for you! We are coming together as strong women to get healthy and have fun!
