Run 4 Your Life 5k

by Stephen Hallgren

Going on its 12th year, the Schenectady Firefighters’ Run 4 Your Life 5k could not be deterred by COVID-19. Staggered starts, group waves and mandatory masks are now routine protocol for races this year. While the weather was chilly, the sun was shining, and a little over 300 people came out to participate and support the Schenectady Firefighters Cancer Foundation.
