There are plenty of ways to celebrate Earth Day, but our 5K Fun Run is clearly the best. You’ll have a chance to be active, enjoy one of the less-explored parks in Manhattan, and support WE ACT for Environmental Justice!
Our annual 5K is a fundraiser open to all ages. We have competitive runners, casual joggers, and leisurely walkers. You can enter as an individual or as a team. The important thing is being there, being a part of our community, and raising money for environmental justice.
Join us on Saturday, April 25th, on Randall’s Island. Our staff will be there at 8:00 AM, with pre-race snacks and drinks. Check-in starts at 8:30 AM, with the fun run starting at 9:00 AM. And once our last participants cross the finish line, we’ll hand out the medals, with awards for the top finishers and fundraisers!
Take advantage of early bird registration, which includes a free WE ACT membership and a fashionable WE ACT Earth Day 5K t-shirt.
