NEW! Riverfront Summer Series is a trio of varying race distances on Thursday evenings, a happy hour challenge that welcomes moving with friends and celebrating summer evenings. Comprised of Hartford’s Riverfront 5K in June, the Riverfront 4 Mile on a different Hartford course in July and the first-ever Riverfront 5 Mile in East Hartford in August. Series finishers will don quarter zips to boast their accomplishment.
