Fall 5Ks Draw Hundreds, More Races Planned

Community 5K events are bringing people together for fitness, seasonal fun and local causes. In Greeley, more than 300 city and school district employees, relatives and friends completed the annual costume-friendly Monster Mash-up 5K. A separate Halloween-themed Costumes for a Cause 5K is also listed, while Longview’s annual Pumpkin Pi event invites participants to walk or run 3.14 miles before enjoying pumpkin pie. The EMO Turkey Trot in East Moriches is scheduled for Thanksgiving morning, with proceeds supporting health and wellness opportunities for local students and a request for nonperishable food donations.
