Event Description

Hi all, our names are Elizabeth Elvin and Paulina Straticos and we are training and running the 127th Boston Marathon on April 17th, 2023. Join us for our second annual Costumes for Children's 5k fun run/walk around UMass Amherst's beautiful campus. Get outside and active while supporting the Boston Children's Hospital and the Miles for Miracles Boston Marathon Running Team. Together we are fundraising 25,000 dollars for the Boston Childrens Hospital in memory of Paulina's cousin Quinn with proceeds going to his Child for Life Foundation. By registering for this 5k not only will you be in the running for prizes but also to support such an amazing cause. Participants will be given refreshments, entered into raffles, and invitation to a post 5k celebration.
