THE EVENT

The 10th Annual Our House 5 Miler will be here before you know it, and over 500 stalwart runners will attack the scenic hills of Summit for the 2009 USATF-New Jersey Grand Prix Championship for Masters Men and Women. A prize money purse of $3,000.00 will be offered, and the best New Jersey runners will compete for their share.

Why should you run Our House? Well, besides the great course, long-sleeved Tee, super giveaways and terrific refreshments, we can't think of any good reason. But many of our previous runners will return for the high quality and great fun.

So join us on Sunday, May 3rd in picturesque Summit, which is easily accessible by car or train. The Our House 5 Miler, one of New Jersey's finest races.

Attention Runners: If you can, please arrive early enough to watch our "Everyone's a Winner " race. This short distance event features the special needs young adults and teens for whom the Our House 5 Miler was created. Please cheer them on at 12:15pm.................Thanks!
