CLA Blue Back Mitten Run

Dive into the holiday spirit with our festive family 5K! It's not just a race but a vibrant community celebration that takes runners and walkers through the heart of West Hartford's beautifully adorned neighborhoods. Feeling the crisp air as you pass by glistening shop windows will surely get you in the mood for some jolly fun!

Finishing this cheerful 3.1-mile journey rewards you with a snug holiday-themed beanie and a taste of delightful holiday cookies at Blue Back Square. Plus, sign up by October 15, and we'll add that personalized touch to your race bib with your very own name on it! Little ones aren't left out - they can dash through our HMF FitKids runs, choosing between a half-mile or a full mile course.

Your festive strides can warm hearts, too; we're collecting NEW winter hats, gloves, and mittens, alongside cash/check donations for our Town That Cares Fund to help those in need. Join us, and let's spread some holiday cheer together! 🎄✨
