While the cooler days of September still seem far away, the Achieve Foundation has been hard at work to prepare for the 14th annual Newstead 5K.
This year, the race will be held on Saturday, September 17.
The race has become a highly-anticipated rite of the new school year in South Orange and Maplewood. For 13 years, it has attracted hundreds of energized runners and families to the rolling course in South Orange’s leafy Newstead neighborhood setting.
