Honor Our Veterans 5k

Honor Our Veterans 5K is a run, walk, or stroll inside Sherwood Island State Park in Westport, Connecticut, directly off I-95. The event is designed for a wide range of ages and abilities, with a traffic-free course and a charity focus tied to veterans. The route winds around the park on a mix of paved paths, cinder trail, and hard-packed sand, making it distinct from a standard road 5K. Proceeds support Homes for the Brave, a Bridgeport-based charity, and the organizers encourage participants to spread the word because not everyone gets Veterans Day off anymore.
