About this race

Founded in 1989 by Dr. Louis W. Sullivan, former U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services (1989–1993), the Sullivan Run/Walk for Health and Fitness has become a beloved end-of-summer tradition for the whole family.

The 5K Run/Walk features a USA Track & Field (USATF)-certified course through East Chop, offering spectacular views of Nantucket Sound. Participants of all ages and abilities are welcome.
