This partnership brings together two organizations born from love, resilience, and community. Stayin' Alive was founded to support the first responders who save lives, while Jamie's 5K was created to honor the life and spirit of Jamie Love.…being active, outside, with community.
Attendees can expect the same community spirit and sense of purpose that have defined both events for years... a lot of high-fiving, cheering for friends and neighbors, reconnecting with people, pushing oneself on the course, and feeling a little extra inspiration. This will be a new venue in Downtown Armonk for past Stayin’ Alive racers. In addition to Jamie’s 5k, there will be a mile race and the donut dash for our youngest runners. Run for Love racers will notice parts of Stayin’ Alive’s event incorporated including tributes to First Responders. All participants will have the opportunity to enjoy the day’s events including the Chamber of Commerce Cider Donut Festival and BPHA Carnival
