The Marlborough Community Foundation Race: Back and Better than Ever!
The Marlborough Community Foundation Race, created over 30 years ago, was designed to bring together the community in celebration of health, spirit, and giving back. What started as a small local event has grown into an annual tradition, attracting over 250 runners and raising funds for scholarships that support local students' higher education.
After a brief hiatus, the race is back—this time partnering with the Wayside Inn Foundation to revitalize the event. The collaboration brings new energy and a broader focus on community, with employees from local businesses joining in and strengthening community ties. Whether running, walking, or participating in a corporate challenge, everyone can contribute to a great cause.
Proceeds will benefit the economic development of the foundations service areas. The revitalized race celebrates fitness, community, and education, while supporting both the foundation’s mission and the Wayside Inn’s legacy.
Join us this year to make a difference, celebrate local pride, and help ensure the race continues to impact future generations. It’s going to be the best one yet!
