About the Run

Welcome to our Fourth Annual 5K Run!  Join us again by running for a great cause.  St. George and St. Shenouda is working towards building a new church.  By participating in our Christian themed 5K Run (run/walk/crawl/whatever!), you're helping us reach our goal of building a new home for our congregation!  As always, stay for the BBQ at the park afterwards.  Support the Coptic church by completing 5K as you observe inspirational Christian themes along the way.

New Feature: This year, we are very blessed to have Racing NJ, a race management team, working with us.  Their services include electronic timing through the use of race computers, a large finish clock, a finish line chute, numbered bibs and more!

What is the 5K Run?

"But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God." Acts 20:24
