Headstrong 5K Set for Saturday Morning
The second annual Headstrong 5K run/walk starts at 9 a.m. Saturday, October 3, at the Marshfield school complex. Proceeds benefit the Brain Aneurysm Foundation, and the race honors Karen Canale and David Savage, who both died of brain aneurysms. Because other events are taking place at the complex, race parking is on the Furnace Brook Middle School side, and bib pickup runs from 8 to 8:45 a.m. on race morning only.
