About
Join us for an invigorating run through the historic Edgewood Park at the edge of Westville, designed by the legendary Frederick Law Olmstead, the mastermind behind NYC's Central Park! Get ready to experience our scenic 5K course that winds alongside West River and the park's picturesque ponds—all without the worry of traffic. This isn't just about the run; it's about legacy and community. We honor the life of Julia Rusinek, a beacon of empathy and support for underprivileged children. All proceeds go to LEAP and the Julia Rusinek Memorial Fund, fueling programs that empower the youth of New Haven with leadership, literature, writing skills, and physical activity. Your participation supports this chain of goodness and keeps Julia's spirit alive. Whether you're looking to set a new personal record or just want a leisurely walk to take in the beauty of the park, we've got you covered. Plus, we've got special runs for the kids, ensuring everyone in the family leaves with a memorable experience and perhaps even a shiny medal! So lace up your sneakers, register online, and let's make every step count!
