The Hartford Marathon Foundation's Blue Back Mitten Run and Kids Fun Run, sponsored by UnitedHealthcare, is a perfect way to ring in the holiday season and celebrate the most wonderful time of the year with the whole family. Join us Sunday, December 8 for a single loop 5K course through West Hartford Center and Blue Back Square. Enjoy start, finish and post race refreshments in Blue Back Square.
Race proceeds and donations will go to “The Town That Cares Fund,” a program of the West Hartford Human Services Department. Please bring new mittens, scarves or hats to donate to people in need, and consider “stuffing the mittens” with a small cash donation (checks also welcome and made payable to The Town That Cares Fund).
We are expecting lots of runners, so be sure to arrive early and get ready for a fun-filled day of racing and holiday cheer! Holiday costumes and running apparel encouraged!
