The ONS Foundation for Clinical Research and Education, Inc., a Greenwich Hospital Alliance, will hold its third annual ONSF PLAY Strong PLAY Safe Family 5K, a Run/Walk and Health & Fitness Expo in beautiful Old Greenwich. This is a USATF certified 5K course which begins at the Eastern Greenwich Civic Center on Harding Road. The course heads south past the Innis Arden Club. At that point participants turn right onto Shore Road and continue for approximately a half-mile then make a right turn onto Sound Beach Ave. This road is a straight away taking you into the town of Old Greenwich. After passing the Old Greenwich Elementary School, runners proceed through town passing the Old Greenwich Firehouse and local shops. On your way out of town, you pass under the railroad bridge, up a small hill and run adjacent to Binney Park. Just after the church, runners turn right onto Forest Avenue and make their way back to the finish line at the Eastern Greenwich Civic Center.
A unique post-race Health and Fitness Expo featuring Elite Health Services, Fairway Markets, Fleet Feet Sports Stamford, Greenwich Running Co., ONS, ONSPT and many others will offer information on sports training, injury prevention and treatments and merchandise demos.
Proceeds from the ONSF PLAY Strong PLAY Safe Family 5K will benefit the ONSF education initiatives and community outreach programs that reach broad audiences and include injury prevention seminars and wellness programs to encourage active, healthy living.
