May 8 - 10RED DRESS RUN - MOTHER'S DAY EDITION

Mother’s Day gives us a great opportunity to celebrate the moms, daughters, sisters, grandmas, aunts and friends in our lives in a time when celebrating is so very important to keeping our spirit strong.

The Red Dress Run Mother’s Day edition shifts a beloved race tradition into a family weekend event to create moments to cherish with our inner circles during a time when we can’t celebrate as a community. There is a way for all family members to participate, in a 5K or a family relay of any distance. And every registration includes a donation to Hartford Interval House, working to end domestic violence.
