Noble Hospital’s annual run/walk at Stanley Park marks 30th year

Date: 3/13/2014

WESTFIELD – Registration is now open for the 30th Annual Noble Hospital 5k Run & Walk for a Noble Cause, which is scheduled for April 26. The race begins at 9 a.m., with registration from 7:30 to 8:30 a.m. in the Children’s Pavilion at Stanley Park.

The 5k run is a competitive road race for all levels of runners – from the novice to the serious athlete. The 3.1-mile course is flat out and back through Stanley Park and the surrounding residential area. A non-competitive walk follows the same route as the road race. Individuals, teams, wheelchair racers, and school groups are all encouraged to participate. After the race, refreshments, activities, and vendor tables will be located near the finish line, and awards will be given out.

Early registration is encouraged. The registration fee for ages 13 to 59 is $35 through April 25 (seniors age 60 and older are $25).

The registration fee for ages 13 to 59 is $40 on April 26 (seniors age 60 and older are $30). Children under the age of 12 participate free when accompanied by a paying adult.

T-shirts and sizes are available to registrants on a first-come, first-served basis while inventory is available. All T-shirts are performance Ts this year.
