Dear Friends of United Way, 

Embrace the winter weather by signing up for our upcoming Nashua Nor'easter Run / Walk / Drive taking place from February 26th to March 4th. Runners, walkers, and participants in vehicles may choose a 5k, 10k,1/2 marathon, or marathon course at any time between those dates. One of the big goals is to raise funds for the Community Safety Net so your participation, whether it's walking, running, or driving does good for others in any setting.

While shaking off the winter blues, you can learn more about the many non-profit partners who are highlighted on each course. You complete your chosen course at your convenience, and competition via self-reported times and a selfie contest adds extra fun. Get moving and raise funds for the United Way Community Safety Net, which supports the many needs of our community.

Training Tip of the Week

Sponsored by Bar Harbor Bank & Trust

Walking or running in the winter is still exercise and you should remember to use sunblock, protect your eyes with sunglasses (especially with the added glare of snow), and Hydration is Critical! Poor hydration lessens your balance and can increase the chance of slips and falls, inside or outside, any time of the year.
