Hope with Every Stride 5k/10k
The Hope with Every Stride event takes place at McCarthy Park and Fields in Medfield, Massachusetts. The course features a combination of tree-lined streets, rolling fields, and nature trails. Participants run on a mix of paved roads and maintained paths, encountering gentle hills and open stretches throughout the town.
The event offers the following distances:
- 5 km
- 10 km
- Kids Fun Run
The 5 km course is held along the Medfield Rail Trail. The 10 km route begins on the Medfield Rail Trail, transitions onto local roads, and returns to the trail for the finish. For the 5 km distance, a water station is located at the halfway mark. Participants in the 10 km pass two water stations, situated at approximately the 1.5-mile and 5-mile marks.
The event includes a Kids Fun Run for children aged 4 to 10. While children are permitted to participate in the longer distances, they must be accompanied by an adult. Due to narrow single-track trail sections, strollers are not recommended on the main courses. Dogs are not permitted as the route passes through restricted trail areas. On-site parking at the venue is free of charge and located within a short walking distance of the start line.
Every registration supports families transitioning out of homelessness, with a portion of the proceeds also benefiting the Soles of Medfield Scholarship Fund. Registration includes a race shirt for those who sign up by the designated early deadline in March. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
