About the race
Running for Water for Africa 5K is staged at Walnut Beach Pavilion, 85 Viscount Drive, Milford, CT. The event offers a 5K Run/Walk (3.1 miles), a 1-mile Walk, and a Kids Run. The course is flat and scenic, with one minor incline at the start, and starts and finishes near the beach; there is ample parking in the beach lot.
October foliage provides a crisp backdrop. Proceeds support a water project for Kitagwenda school, including drilling a well and delivering clean water to about 2,000 students. Participants can compete for overall and age-group awards or enjoy a walk, with a raffle from restaurants. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
