Unite to Fight!
Childhood Hunger 5K Run/Walk
Join Filling in the Blanks on August 23, 2026, at the Eighth Annual Unite to Fight 5K. The race will take place at Mill River Park located in Stamford, CT.
In Fairfield County, more than 33,000 children are not sure where their next meal will come from. Most will get breakfast and lunch from school every weekday, but many will go from Friday lunch until Monday at breakfast without a decent meal. Founded in 2013, Filling in the Blanks is an organization that fills in those weekend gaps by providing each child in its program with a bag filled with healthy, easy-to-prepare food for the weekend. When the obstacle of food insecurity is removed, children experience increased academic achievement in school and greater opportunities for success in their lives. FITB continuously serves 10,000+ kids at over 200 sites throughout Fairfield, Westchester, and Putnam counties. FITB has also established four in-school pantries and in 2023 launched the Fresh Food On The Move mobile pantry that provides families with fresh produce, veggies, proteins and other staples, as well as health and wellness services.
With your race registration, you will receive a Unite to Fight T-shirt.
*T-shirts are based on availability if registering after July 17, 2026.

Once again the race will follow the varied and scenic course from Franklin Street Park along the Hudson to Piermont and back.
The race starts at 8:30, and the course will close at 11:00, after which the water stations will be dismantled and there will be no Marshalls or police escort on the course, so this event is not recommended for walkers.
The proceeds from this race benefit local first responders, Nyack-area food programs and the Rockland Road Runners Scholarship Fund.
Rockland Road Runner Club members receive a 15% discount at checkout. All registrants can receive a $20 refund if they refer 5 friends.
Packet Pickup
To avoid the crush on race morning, we encourage you to pick up your race number and shirt on Saturday from 12:00 - 3:00 at Dicks Sporting Goods in the Palisades Mall.

Boogie Down Bronx Runners was born from a simple observation. In May 2017, Lenny and Jean Paul noticed a gap in their borough no one else was filling, so they decided to change it themselves. The Bronx is the unhealthiest county in New York State, but these two runners believed something different was possible. What started as a solo runner at their first meetup has grown into nearly 40 strong on weekly runs, a non-judgmental community of everyday Bronx residents proving that running can transform lives, one BX mile at a time. They gather Sunday mornings at Edgar Allan Poe Park and Tuesday evenings at Pelham Cornerstone Community Center, offering two chances every week to be part of something real.
