Organiser's description

Fitness with Friends' vision is to help communities become healthy, fit, and happy by providing clinics and classes for all members old and young. We also have had a dream of bringing a 5K race back to River Vale. Our first race this past Fall, was a big success with over 100 entrants. We're excited to bring another 5K to our amazing community.

This race was created and is being executed in coordination with Run 4 Love.
