Get ready to make a real difference at this 5K event in New London, CT that starts at 9:00 am with free parking and plenty of space to arrive 30-60 minutes early. Active-duty military, Veterans, and their families run free with proper ID, and every dollar raised goes directly to the Navy Marine Corps Relief Society. Beyond the race itself, you'll enjoy a full day of celebration featuring local vendors, military booths with inspiring stories, and a special ceremony at 3:00 pm on the boardwalk stage honoring service members and Connecticut Veterans.
