Runners from all over the Boston area will lace up their sneakers and gather at Ray Ciccolo’s Boston Volvo Village in Brighton on Thanksgiving Day for the 20th Annual 5K Road Race, benefitting the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, Greater New England Chapter, which supports nearly 21,000 New Englanders living with MS.
The Boston Volvo Village 5K Road Race has become a fixture among Boston running events over the last two decades, attracting more than 1,000 runners each year—both serious and recreational. The race kicks off at Boston Volvo Village, then winds through the streets of Brighton and concludes where it began at the dealership.
Registration is $25 online through 11:00am on Tuesday, November 21st, or $40 on-site at the event, and runners must register themselves on the day of the race from 7:30am-8:30am, with the race kicking off at 9:00am. There will be prizes awarded to the top finishers and the first 750 people to register will receive a free race T-shirt!
