STONE HARBOR — Fitness should be fun for everyone. That’s the motto of the second annual Jaws Youth Fund Fitness Festival and 5K taking place Sunday, at the 82nd Street Park.
The Fitness Festival is an action-packed day that emphasizes the importance of physical activity and healthy choices for people of all ages,” said ESPN’s Monday Night Football Analyst and former NFL Eagles great Ron Jaworski, co-founder of the event.
The 5K Run/Jog/Walk kicks off at 9 a.m. with more than a dozen local mascots holding an honorary ‘start’ by racing the first 50 meters and then cheering on the 5K participants. Team participation is encouraged with awards given to the best-dressed team and largest team.
The Festival will feature fun for the whole family with children’s activities, on-site interactive exhibits and tons of free goodies. The main stage will be rockin’ all day (from 7:30 a.m. – noon), with music, on-stage acts, mascot appearances and raffle item giveaways.
