Stride for New Hampshire Pride
August 27 footrace supports local agriculture
Whether you run, walk, or shuffle, come boost (or boast about) your physical fitness while you support local agriculture in the 1 st annual Stride for New Hampshire Pride 5K footrace August 27. The race begins at 9 a.m. at the State House Plaza in Concord.
You might win a bushel of New Hampshire-grown sweet corn or a bag of vine-ripened tomatoes.
The fast, flat, USATF-certified course winds through downtown Concord and ends with a party on the State House lawn featuring locally-produced goodies.
Organized and directed by UNH Cooperative Extension educator Sadie Puglisi, the event aims to raise awareness about the economic, social and health benefits of local agriculture. All profits go to the New Hampshire Farmers’ Market Association.
