0.5K Mini-Marathon

A Short Run for Charity. Are you in Olympic physical condition, subsisting on a carefully calibrated diet and ready to run for miles for a good cause?  Yeah, neither are we. But we can help run for a good cause.  Join members of the Hamilton-Wenham Rotary at The Wenham Country Club for our first annual 0.5K Mini-Marathon. (That’s 1,640 feet)  Proceeds from the “race” will benefit Youth & Senior Services in Hamilton and Wenham.
