Thank You for an Incredible Couch to 5K Spring Season!

Dear Couch to 5K Team,

I want to extend a huge thank you to everyone who participated in our Spring Program. We’ve officially wrapped up both our Mock 5K and the Make-Up Mock 5K, and I couldn’t be prouder of what we’ve accomplished together.

Despite ten weeks of rainy, unpredictable weather, every single one of you showed up with dedication and resilience. It’s incredibly rewarding to see participants—many of whom had never run a 5K before—cross that finish line. You inspire us all.

A heartfelt thank you as well to our generous sponsors who helped make this program possible:

Lost Shoe

KB Lawns

Lemire Insurance Agency

Marlboro Nissan

Touchdown Carpet

Juniper Farms Ice Cream

Main St Café

Dairy Queen

Your support means the world to us.

We’ll be back this Fall—our next season kicks off on Tuesday, September 2nd, right after Labor Day. Until then, enjoy some well-deserved rest and keep moving!

Lion Mark
