11th Annual MILFORD MOVES FOR VETERANS

5K Run / Walk on Sunday, June 28, 2026

OUR RACE WEEKEND IS THE WEEK AFTER FATHERS DAY!

We appreciate all of you who made it to our family-friendly event in the past.

Join us for a great fundraiser honoring our local Veterans & organizations that serve them.

All proceeds raised will be donated to Milford's Veterans groups:

American Legion, Disabled American Veterans (DAV), Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW),

Vietnam Veterans of America (VVA) and Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association (CVMA).

Please consider a donation of any amount to help our veterans in Milford.

We encourage all abilities to join us. You’ll love our course!

This event will be held in compliance with State of CT, city and health department guidelines.

The 5k Run/Walk is bib chip-timed from the start & finish- you receive your ‘net’ time from ‘Last Mile Racing’

All runners & walkers completing the entire 5k are eligible for prizes based on their time.

Plenty of parking in nearby lots, at The Milford Bank on the green, and the parking lots behind Colony Grill

There is no parking allowed on the 5k course

A free Kids, safe “Run For The Flag” Fun Run- a non-competitive, 200-yard scamper for kids 10 and younger only - weather permitting. All kids receive a flag and medal at the finish.

A special swag giveaway is guaranteed to the first 350 entrants.

We will give out the “Most Patriotic Award” which could be identified at the start. So be prepared! Show off your stars and stripes!
