Honoring 25 Years of Resilience 5K Run/Walk
Honoring 25 Years of Resilience is a 5-kilometer run/walk held on the Valley Stream Central High School campus in Valley Stream, New York. The event serves as a fundraiser for Tunnel to Towers and uses school grounds and nearby parks for the route.
The course begins and ends at the gate connecting Valley Stream Central High School to A.J. Hendrickson Park, proceeds north through A.J. Hendrickson Park, crosses Hendrickson Avenue into Valley Stream State Park, and completes only the park's northern loop twice to reach the full 5K (3.1 miles) before returning to the school gate.
On-site amenities include parking, indoor restrooms, water stations on course and at the finish area, music at the start and finish, chip timing with race bibs, first aid and medical support, post-race refreshments, and free finish-line photos. Event shirts are provided to participants who register before 8/31, and personalized bibs are available for those who register at least three weeks in advance. Live, text, and email results are offered.
Awards are given to the top overall male and female, top student male and female, and top staff male and female. Bib pickup is located at Valley Stream Central Gym, 135 Fletcher Ave, Valley Stream, NY 11580.
Virtual participants may complete the distance remotely and upload times and photos from Race Day through the following Sunday using common tracking methods such as treadmill or GPS apps. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
