**** Due to the extension of the public health emergency in New Jersey (by another month), we are postponing the Roxbury 5k race until later in the year. We are working with the town to establish a new date for the race, hopefully in late August or September.
Safety and health of the runners, spectators and volunteers comes first. Stay tuned and stay safe. ****
