Millis Boosters Run Back to School 5k and 1 mile Fun Run

 

The Boosters are excited to be hosting our fun, community "Run Back to School" event for our 8th year!! Join us for a 5k course of rolling hills through Millis or a 1 mile fun run on the school grounds. All proceeds go to the athletes and teams of Millis Middle/High School as well as projects that support the entire Athletic Department. We look forward to having kids, parents, families, and community members join us for a morning of fun, fitness, music, and celebration. We welcome runners, walkers, and strollers! Our 5k is chip-timed by Second Wind Timing and an immediate print out of your results will be available. Check-in and race day registration will begin at 7:30am and we encourage you to arrive at least 30 minutes ahead of your race starting.
