Mary Therese Rose Fund TIMED "MILE" & Walk 2026

Description

Richie's Race (Officially Timed Mile) & Mary's Miles (Walk)

We are very excited to announce our Mary Therese Rose Fund Run/Walk in Memory of Rich DuHaime. In prior years, this was 5K Run/Walk formerly held in Darlington County Park in Mahwah. NJ. This year’s event will feature milers competing on the Lakeland Regional High School track. The walkers will be cheering them on the runners from the inner oval and outer edges of the track. Mile runs are all the rage, but walking is just as important. Everyone within a stone's throw of Wanaque can see how fast (or slow) they can tackle a mile (5,280 feet/4 laps around the track), while having fun engaging or just kicking back and enjoying the "time" of day.

In Memory of Rich DuHaime

Rich and his family have been recipients of assistance through the fund for their special needs child and dedicated the last 10+ years to raise funds for the children of the Mary Therese Rose Fund. Rich unexpectedly passed away on May 4th, 2021, and our fund has decided to honor his life and dedication to our charity.
