The HOHA Classic, the longest running race in Hoboken, returns for its 17th running on May 10, and with it, fun and new features that will have everyone running to Hoboken as their Mother’s Day destination.
Joining the 5 Mile Run this year will be a formatted kids run and a 1.5 Mile Baby Jogger Jaunt (an event exclusively for runners pushing strollers). Moms will get flowers and, of course, HoHos, the light snack favorite of the Hoboken Harriers Running Club, known as the HOHAs. Runners will be able to register as teams.
Post Race events include a new Mom’s Spa on Pier A at the Finish Festival area.
Proceeds from the race benefit the Jubilee Center, a non-denominational community center in Hoboken that provides after school youth programs.
You can register on-line at www.hoha.net . Advance on-line registrations accepted through May 7. Single registration for the 5 Mile Race is $25 in advance, $30 on race day. Advance registration for combo run of 5 Mile Race and Baby Jogger Jaunt Run is $30. Fun Run race registration is $5 in advance and on race day.
