Come on over to East Boston and kick off your summer with Let's Get Movin' at the 9th Annual 5K for Fitness walk/run!
Celebrate healthy lifestyles, explore Eastie, and support the amazing kids and families from the Let's Get Movin' program. Make sure to stick around for post-race activities, healthy refreshments, music and more!
Who are we?
Let’s Get Movin’ is a healthy lifestyle change program founded by the East Boston Neighborhood Health Center in 2005 after recognizing a need for more physical activity and nutrition programming in our community. In 2012 we hosted our first 5K race with one intention: give Let’s Get Movin’ kids and families the opportunity to train for and finish a real race. Starting with just 30 kids and volunteers, our race has grown to over 500 runners and walkers. We welcome all ages and abilities to participate in this celebration of health and community!
