Our 7th ANNUAL 5K Run/Walk, 1-Mile Walk and 1-Mile Kids’ Run was our BEST YET!
An ENORMOUS THANK YOU to our sponsors who provided financial and other support and EVERYBODY else who made this such a successful event!!

We had some of the fastest runners ever this year AND we had more kids (and adults) with special needs participate than ever before! Watching them cross the finish line and then proudly wearing their medals for the rest of the morning was a nice reminder for everybody of the reason we do this! We were able to raise money to support our mission and at the same time work toward achieving one of our primary objectives, which is to encourage and facilitate the inclusion of people with special needs. MyTeamTriumph had a huge group of Captains -- each with their own team of Angels, Mimi Washington of Rolling Thunder had a great team of kids from her adaptive running program, and we had lots of “Only You” kids running with a buddy!

We had over 30 Corporate Sponsors, nearly 50 Family Sponsors, and lots of awesome people who donated, volunteered, or just showed up to cheer everyone on!

Thanks to our Corporate Sponsors:

AND Special Thanks to:

Regina Madwed at Capitol Photointeractive and One Chance Media for graciously hosting our bib pickup, and to Regina for capturing all the special moments of the day and One Chance Media for hosting a complimentary Photo Booth and handing out souvenir photos to everybody.
Amber French and Au Pair in America for once again hosting the International-themed Kids’ Tent and having local au pairs from 9 different countries share information about their countries and cultures with all the kids who came to visit
Maggie Taylor for helping Edel Keane in the Jarosa Studio Yoga Tent
Annika Jonker for helping Emily host the ever-popular Slime Table in the Kids’ Tent
Lisa Broder and Jenn O’Hara for organizing the Crews from Scholars and Athletes Serving Others (SASO) Girls and SASO Boys and the Crews!
Cathy Dunsby for setting up and managing the Door Prize table
Jacki Jankang who took time off from her real job, flew in from Germany a week before the Event and worked pretty much around-the-clock to make sure that everything was perfect
Mikey's friend, Aleysha Henry for kicking things off with our National Anthem
The Fairfield Police for helping us keep everyone safe out on the course
Marty Schaivone for advising and assisting us and sharing with us all of the wisdom and experience that comes from 30 years of directing road races!
Rev. Alida Ward and Rev. David Rowe from Greenfield Hill Congregational Church for all of their support – including coming down bright and early to bless the day
Jacalyn Papstein, Pat Allaire and Amy Yazbak for managing the Kids’ Area
Mikey for giving us the best weather EVER!
The countless friends and family and others (they know who they are and so do we) who volunteered their time in the week before and especially the day of the Event (many beginning before sunrise and some traveling quite a distance to be here). Without each and every one of them this Event would not have been possible….

We are so thrilled to have had another successful Event and immensely grateful to everybody who helped make it happen. Each year seems to be better than the one before, and people who have been with us every year say afterward that it was the best one ever! We raised more money than we had even hoped, and now we are looking forward to putting it all to good use in the coming year. We've got lots of exciting things in the works so stay tuned!

And finally, of course, to EVERYBODY who came out! The collective energy of the amazing crowd that shows up every year is really what makes this day so special and what inspires us to do it all over again next year!
