4K Trail Run

Thompson Island Outward Bound's Annual 4K Trail Run

Wednesday, May 24th & Thursday, May 25th 2023


Thank you to all who made it to the finish line in support of our 2023 4K Trail Run! On May 24th and May 25th, we hosted 75 corporate teams and over 1,100 total runners on Thompson Island for an evening of friendly competition, community building and a post-race BBQ. Thanks to the generous support of corporate sponsors, individual runners, and dedicated Peer-to-Peer fundraisers, this year's 4K Trail Run raised over $335,000 (and counting!) to benefit outdoor education and experiential learning for Boston Public School, middle school students

Every dollar raised through this annual fundraising event has gone directly toward supporting Thompson Island Outward Bound's core mission: to provide free, hands-on science learning and social-emotional development to Boston students.

 

THANK YOU 2023 SPONSORS!

Increase Your Impact!

The 2023 4K Trail Run may be over, but there is still time to fundraise with your team to win some great incentives and make an even bigger impact on our island! 

Encourage and incentivize your employees to participate in the fundraising initiative by pledging a matching challenge. The corporate match will be added to the team’s overall fundraising and go toward the team fundraising incentives. Runners can make a direct impact in the life of a Boston Public School student by conducting their own fundraising campaign. It costs $2,300 for one BPS student to participate in our multi-year Connections program. By committing to raise $2,300 you will ensure a student can visit Thompson Island 12 times during their middle school career.

PEER-TO-PEER FUNDRAISING
