Run, Leap, Slink, Walk, Skulk… heck, you can slide across the Finish Line… get here and join us for the Inaugural MOMbies Mother’s Day 5K!
WHO (ON EARTH?) ARE THE MOMBIES? We are a monstrous and mostly friendly troupe of Mom Zombies who slink into formation on Halloween… to dance. Since 2016, we’ve been deeply committed to embarrassing our children, delighting our community, and – most importantly – raising money for cutting-edge research to end metastatic breast cancer. All funds we raise go to THE CANCER COUCH FOUNDATION, where every dollar is matched and directly supports research at Memorial Sloan Kettering. To date, with much gratitude for your support, we’ve helped raise over $380K!
WHO SHOULD REGISTER: Everyone! The roadway will open to men, women, children, ghosts, and the undead to celebrate Moms and Movement.
WHERE: Jennings Beach, 880 South Benson Road, Fairfield, CT 06824. The course is flat and takes you through the lovely neighborhood of Fairfield Beach. It begins and ends at the Jennings Beach parking lot.
THE AFTERMATH: Hang around after you cross that Finish Line for some MOMbies fun and a wild all-are-welcome dance party!
BENEFICIARY: Proceeds from the Event benefit The Cancer Couch Foundation, which directly funds the researchers at Memorial Sloan Kettering who work on metastatic breast cancer.
An anonymous donor will match all donations!
