Organiser's Description
The Navy Yard 5K is a community-minded event, connecting runners, tenants, and organizations through fitness and fun. Involvement presents an ideal opportunity to raise awareness of your business or organization and to support the Navy Yard community. It also provides a great team-building event for your organization as teammates can run, volunteer, or just cheer alongside their co-workers!
This unique event will take place at lunchtime on Central Green at the Navy Yard. Whether you participate as a runner, walker, course volunteer, or as a spectator, we hope to see you there! Beginning at 11:30, everyone is encouraged to visit the Health + Wellness Expo in Central Green, featuring Navy Yard tenants educating employees on all aspects of workplace health, wellness, nutrition, fitness, and lifestyle.
This year, we will be offering a 5K and 1 Miler. The event remains free for both and all participants will get Navy Yard 5K-branded swag. It is all about fun and camaraderie! Plus it is the 25th Anniversary of the Navy Yard so we are making it an extra special party!
After the race, well celebrate with awards, music, and refreshments! And don't forget to bring your lunch money for that week's food trucks to fuel your post-race party.
