#RunHartford

Weekend weather is looking good for exploring outdoors! Sign up to run, walk or hike the Evergreen Adventure across parks in CT and RI. You'll receive area guides, a custom hoorag to use as a face mask or neck gaiter, and donation of $10 will be made by
Webster Bank on your behalf to benefit local East Coast Greenway Alliance trails.

Submit your inspiring story or nominate someone for the 2020 Inspiration Team, presented by Bank of America. We want to highlight those moving with purpose in the Eversource Hartford Marathon events this October, whether serving their community through charity support, social justice causes or as frontline responders. Please see details and nomination form: hartfordmarathon.blogspot.com/
There are more inspiring stories than people working through a pandemic and working for charities just saying.
Connecticut residents in the Evergreen Adventure, presented by Webster Bank may travel to Rhode Island for a park visit but should be aware of the updated travel advisory released yesterday regarding 14-day quarantine requirement for visits longer than 24 hours. As always, we urge all participants to adhere to social distancing and public health requirements. Travel advisory details are available at portal.ct.gov/Coronavirus/travel
Travel Advisory for Visitors to Connecticut

Travel infoirmation for visitors and travelers to Connecticut from other parts of the Untied StatesWhile there are lots of technology, apparel and training tools available for runners, you don't need specialty equipment to run. The very basics is the need for a good running shoe, as discussed by Dr. Fantry of the CT Sports Medicine Institute at Saint Francis Hospital in today's Tip Tuesday. Check with local running stores for shoe options, sound RUNNER and Fleet Feet West Hartford are two great resources.
The first weekend of the Evergreen Adventure, presented by Webster Bank kicked off a month-long running, walking and hiking initiative to encourage exploring different state parks.
If you've already registered, your hoorag will be mailed out this week (not just a face mask or neck gaiter, it works great as a headband - as our little model shows!).

Are there specific challenges for each park? Or just visit the park and do any distance run/walk/hike?
I love those little ones!
