About the 9th Annual Run for Recovery 5K in Tewksbury
The course starts and finishes at a high school on Pleasant Street. The race supports a local nonprofit that runs sober living homes, so the crowd tends to include people with a personal connection to the cause rather than just the usual race-day field. There is food and refreshments at the finish, and age group awards are part of the morning.
Packet pickup opens well before the start, and race-morning registration is available. The start area is the high school grounds, with bib pickup there on race day.
