Details:

Whether you’re a competitive or recreational runner, a seasoned or novice walker, or just looking to meet up, have fun, and do good, the annual BLOOMIN’ 5K Run/1 Mile Walk is for you!  St. Peter’s Haven, a nonsectarian nonprofit and Clifton’s only food pantry and homeless family shelter will host BLOOMIN’ at 8:30 AM on April 28, 2024 with help from our “Run-To” partner, the Clifton Road Runners Club. http://www.cliftonroadrunners.com/ 

While the City of Clifton works on long-term solutions through a community-wide task force, proceeds from BLOOMIN’ will help St. Peter’s Haven to address more immediate needs, providing families and individuals in need with food and a pathway to greater independence and safe, stable housing. BLOOMIN’ will feature a USATF-NJ sanctioned/certified course with Grand Prix status, a dog and stroller friendly walk, music, food, and fun activities for kids.

It's a fast 5K course with a downhill finish.  Cash prizes for overall best.  Beat the fastest time of 14:57.3 (Men) or 19:42.5 (Women) for additional cash prize.  The 1 Mile Walk is a comfortable 3 times around Main Memorial Pond.  The Marketplace will have a DJ, Carb Station, Flower Station, Kids Activity Station and more.
