Get Ready to Run!

If you’re a first-time 5Ker, or you haven’t run in a while, train and stay motivated with the C25K app (that’s “Couch to 5K”). It’s a free app training program that takes you from Couch Potato to Runner in only eight weeks. Exercise three times a week for only 30 minutes while listening to your own music–the C25K app coaches you from walking to running gradually. Become a healthier YOU while helping others stay safe from HIV! We’ll also have group training runs/walks in early 2016.

Learn more about the C25K app: C25Kfree.com.

Event Details

The Hudson Valley AIDS Walk takes place on the Poughkeepsie side of the Walkway Over the Hudson and Dutchess Rail Trail. Access the Walkway on Parker Avenue. The Walk’s “base camp” is in the Poughkeepsie side’s official parking lot at the very end of the Walkway, just before the Dutchess Rail Trail. If you enter the Walkway from Washington Street, walk EAST (away from the river) to find the Walk’s base camp.

Parking

Please park according to local parking signage and availability. HVCS is not responsible for vehicles or parking violations. Street parking is available in certain spots; you may also park at Pulaski Park and enter the Walkway via the Washington St. stairs. Unofficial parking lots are available on Parker Avenue and the old diner.
