Lace up your running shoes for the 25th Anniversary of the Lincoln Tunnel Challenge on April 17 and run for a great cause. All runners and members of the Hoboken Elysianettes Running Society and Hoboken Harriers are teaming up with the Hoboken Family Alliance to run for Team HobokONE.
The goal is simple: to field the biggest running team for the race that benefits the Special Olympics. Running together as one big team is a simple way to show community support for people with intellectual disabilities. Register today at bit.ly/HobokONE. As a team member you'll be able to pick up your race packet Saturday, April 16 at a free pasta party generously hosted by City Bistro. The party runs from 1 pm - 4 pm and includes food, fun, cocktails and raffles.
Proceeds from the Lincoln Tunnel Challenge help New Jersey Special Olympics athletes by providing year-round sports training and competition in various Olympic-type sports for children and adults with intellectual disabilities. Currently, more than 21,000 athletes with intellectual disabilities train and compete throughout New Jersey in 24 sports and particpate in more than 160 competitive events.
