Stride to Provide 5K
About this race
Join us for the 2nd Annual Stride to Provide 5K, a USATF-certified, Grand Prix-eligible, professionally timed race and walk in Somerset County.
Whether you are chasing a personal record or walking with your family, every participant helps Feeding Hands deliver groceries to families who need them. Last year's Stride to Provide was the largest 5K held at Duke Island Park, and this year we are aiming to feed even more families.
The Stride to Provide is the fastest way to feed our neighbors. Every dollar raised produces four dollars' worth of groceries. For every $30 registration, Feeding Hands delivers $120 of fresh food and essentials to a family with care and dignity. Cross the finish line, fill a cart with groceries, and give hunger a run for its money.
🏃USATF-certified, Grand Prix-eligible, professionally timed 5K. Register by April 10th for Early Bird pricing.
