The Spring Lake Five, a pinnacle event for runners, may have closed registrations, but there’s a unique opportunity to still join through the Boys & Girls Clubs of Monmouth County (BGCM).

This is more than a race; it’s a chance to be part of a collective effort that champions positive change, all while experiencing the camaraderie of running alongside 12,499 like-minded individuals.
