🏃♀️🍂 That’s a wrap on Run Stanley 2026! 🍂🏃♂️
What a beautiful fall day for the 14th Annual Run Stanley! The weather was perfect for running and walking, and there was so much excitement and energy throughout Stanley Park! We even had a special guest appearance from Stanley, the Westfield Starfires mascot! ⚾️
A huge congratulations to all of our runners and walkers, especially our 152 Munchkins who participated this year! 🏃♀️🏃♂️
The competition for the School Spirit Trophy was a close one! Munger Hill Elementary and Highland Elementary each had 48 registered runners, creating a tie! The first two students from those schools to cross the finish line broke the tie, and Highland Elementary took home the trophy! 🏆 Munger Hill will receive a well-deserved runner-up trophy for their incredible participation. Way to go, everyone! 👏
