About this race
LifeSong, Inc. invites you to register for the Fifteenth Anniversary LifeSong Dash 5K! The Dash is LifeSong’s premier fundraiser and community outreach event, supporting adults with disabilities and their families. A destination event for road racers of all skill levels and abilities, the Dash starts at Halfmoon Town Park in Clifton Park, NY, and features an out-and-back course along picturesque, rolling country roads.
Dash Day offers fun for the whole family, including the Junior Dash kids' run, food trucks, vendors, a rock climbing wall, a dunk tank, and a post-race concert! Awards are presented to the top three runners in each age and gender category. All entrants receive a complimentary Dash T-shirt and other gifts.
More than 1,000 runners and spectators joined us in 2025, and this year's commemorative edition promises to be our best yet! For more information, contact Race Director Dr. Darren Barkman at [email protected].
