The Homefront Halloween 5K Is On For October 30

The race is on, Mercer County!

This is such a perfect way to get some exercise and also get involved in the community. I just started taking working out really seriously and my first goal is to be able to run a 5K within the next 2 months.

This is such a good cause for my first one, also! I saw a sign on Eggert's Crossing Road in Lawrence Township that was advertising this 5K run (or walk) that’s happening really soon. It’s called the Homefront Halloween 5K and it’s all going down right in Princeton, New Jersey!

How can I register for the Homefront Halloween 5K in Princeton, NJ?
