This fun community-inspired event will be run on our certified course from Newton High School's Parking Lot through the roads of Ryerson, Plainfield, and Linwood and back to Newton High School.   The Newton Pride Foundation is thrilled to welcome you to our FUN RUN!  

Don your favorite costume, bask in your favorite alter - persona -  It's Halloween!  Let's make it a Costume Party as well.  Walk or run, have some fun!

Not up for 3.1 miles? No problem — our 1-Mile Fun Run on the track is perfect for all ages, little monsters included- Fun Run Race to follow...

Bonus Treat: Flash your race bib at O’Reilly’s Pub after the race and enjoy a post-run pint on us (21+)! Because nothing says “I survived the 5K” like a cold drink and good company.
