Memorial Day Morning in Downtown Hart

The 2019 5K races took place Memorial Day morning in downtown Hart.The race is named to memorialize race organizer Rich Tompkins, who left an indelible mark on the event. Runners, hand cyclists, and walkers lined up in downtown Hart to step off on a 1, 2 or 3.1 mile trek through the streets of Hart, with a course that includes a trip through the Hart Public School Campus, and a jaunt on the Hart Montague bike trail. The race ends with an enjoyable downhill finish on State Street to Hart Commons.

Inspired by its name sake, it has been operated as a certified 5K attracting runners, hand cyclists, and walkers both locally and beyond. A fun and challenging course starting and ending in downtown Hart took participants through our quaint town on this beginning of summer holiday.
