Memorial Day weekend, there will be a family-friendly race in Stone Harbor, N.J.
The 19th annual Turtle Trot 5K and two-mile fun walk will take place on Sunday, May 27. The course winds through the shore town's residential neighborhoods.
Stone Harbor's diamondback terrapins, which often cross the town's roads in search of an area to nest, inspired the race's name.
A portion of proceeds will go to the Terrapin Conservation Program at The Wetlands Institute.
Registration for the 5K is $30. Prizes will be given to the top three men and women finishers in each age category.
The two-mile walk is untimed. Registration is $20.
All runners and walkers will receive a Turtle Trot T-shirt, while supplies last.
Sunday, May 27
8 a.m. start time | $20-$30 per person
