Greetings
COVID-19 UPDATE: This year we will host a virtual race. All registrants will run/walk 4.6 miles on their own. Prices will remain the same. All registrants will receive a special edition shirt as long as they are registered by October 1st. Because the race is virtual shirts will be mailed or delivered locally. Remember that all proceeds raised go directly to local student scholarships. Participants are encouraged to submit their results via our Race Results Form and share pictures through social media and tag Greg's Run.
We welcome you to join us in the 17th annual Greg's Run. Greg graduated North Middlesex Regional High School in 2003 where he excelled as a student athlete, band member, and academic. Having proven his skill and will power, Greg succeeded in track events and was named team captain during his senior year. Following his graduation from North Middlesex, Greg enrolled in Worcester Polytechnic Institute, studying Mechanical Engineering with a minor in Biotechnology. He joined the U.S Army ROTC Program and WPI Crew Team. Tragically, Greg was struck while running near WPI and died from his injuries.
Let us not forget Greg's passion for his community, and why we, as a community choose to run for Greg. Whether it was love for his family, church or the local students - he showed how much he cared through his actions. Let this run be just one of our actions to remember Greg and those we run for. In memory of Greg, run with us.
