Blue Island Oyster Foundation and Sayville Running Co. presents the 10th annual 5K to protect the Great South Bay. Donations and sponsorships from the run go to the Blue Island Oyster Foundation, a registered 501c3. The main event will take place at scenic Foster Avenue Park! A virtual option remains for folks who can't make it to run or walk with us in person. We ask participants to share their runs via social media using #5kRunfortheBay.
Custom crafted Oyster Medal Awards to the top overall finishers, plus the 3 winners in 5 year age groups from 10 and under, to 80+.
