From the Organizer
Shake off the winter blues, gather your friends and family, and join us for a morning of community, movement, and purpose!
Winter is behind us, the days are getting longer, and it’s time to stretch those legs! Join us for Cottage Hospital’s 6th Annual Any Which Way 5K & Walk-a-thon — a fun, energizing way to get moving again and support a great cause.
This year, 100% of proceeds will support Cottage Hospital’s Operating Room Renovation and campus improvement projects, helping us continue our 120-year mission of providing accessible, quality healthcare to the Upper Connecticut Valley.
Choose your pace and your path — run the 5K or participate in the 5K Walk-a-thon (begins immediately after runners take off). However you move, you’re making a difference.
