5K Run Or Walk For Congo Women Race On Roosevelt Island Takes Place On Saturday Morning



Roosevelt Island will be the venue for a 5k Run or Walk For Congo Women Race this Saturday morning.
When we Run for Congo Women, we are sending a simple message: Congolese lives matter. The lives of Congolese women are significant. The lives of Congolese children are precious. They have waited far too long. They are worth our effort. We are running to help. Join us!
Registration opens at 8:30 and the race begins at 9 AM. More registration information available here.

The You Tube Video below explains what Run For Congo Women is all about.



RIOC issued the following advisory regarding the event:
On Saturday, September 26th, a 5K race will be taking place around the perimeter of the island.
Traffic between 475 Main Street and 425 Main Street may be delayed between 9am and 9:30am. Please plan accordingly.

We appreciate your cooperation during this time.
