LFA 6th Annual 10K+ and 5K+/Walk
The LFA 6th Annual 10K+ and 5K+/Walk is a community event held in Hyde Park and Mattapan. This gathering serves as an annual celebration of achievements within the local running community. The event emphasizes inclusivity and wellness, aiming to promote mental health and physical fitness through movement.
The course is unsanctioned and untimed, utilizing the sidewalks and streets of the local neighborhoods. Participants are responsible for monitoring their own surroundings, including traffic and road conditions. Because the event is not officially timed, participants are encouraged to use mobile applications to track their own pace and progress.
Available distances include:
- 3.2 miles (5K+/Walk)
- 6.8 miles (10K+)
The registration fee includes an official event T-shirt and a commemorative race medal. Participants have access to pre-race snacks and post-race refreshments. Hydration and refueling stations are positioned along the course to support runners and walkers. Additionally, a red carpet area is provided for polaroid photographs of participants with their medals. The event is organized by a group focused on improving access to health and wellness within the community through a philosophy of continuous personal growth.
