Robert J. Lynes Memorial Road Race

Lace up your sneakers for a day of remembrance and community spirit at the Robert J. Lynes Memorial Road Race! This 5K fun-filled run/walk, with a special kids' Fun Run, is all about celebrating the life and legacy of Bobby Lynes, a dedicated Meriden native. Whether you knew Bob from his high school track days, from one of the many local organizations he served, or you're just passionate about supporting the preservation of the stunning Hubbard Park, this event is the perfect way to honor his memory and give back.

Kickoff the day at 8:00 am with participant check-in, watch the kids dash at 9:15 am, and set your own pace in the 5K at 9:30 am. Register online to snag your spot and an event T-shirt (before October 19), and stay for the chance to win top runner awards or prizes in our post-race raffle. Join us in making strides to keep Hubbard Park—Bob’s beloved slice of Meriden—beautiful for generations to come!
