Run to Home Base 9K/5K Presented by New Balance

15 Jul 2017 / 08:00 AM
One of Boston's most beloved races is back for 2017. The 8th annual Run to Home Base returns on Saturday, July 15th, and we are excited to introduce THREE new updates to the race:

1) Register to run or walk the new 5K distance.
For those participants looking for a shorter race than the 9K, but a longer route than the 2.5-mile walk, you can now register to run/walk the 5K, which will replace the 2.5-mile walk.

(2) Support our Veterans and become a Run to Home Base All-Star. Participants who fundraise more than $2,000 by Thursday, July 6th will achieve “All-Star” status and receive the following as a thank you for their exemplary fundraising efforts:
- 2 tickets to the Red Sox vs. Toronto Blue Jays game on July 19th
- 2 tickets to the Pre-Run Welcome Party
- 2 tickets to the Post-Run Appreciation Party
- Recognition on runtohomebase.org

(3) Special registration rates for Active Duty E5 and below.
