The Sterling Down and Dirty 5K Obstacle Race is our annual family-friendly 5k obstacle-filled run through Stratford Short Beach every September.

Run, walk, skip or dance your way to the finish line - as you get sweaty, sandy, dirty, and wet along the way! Perfect for all fitness levels - you can race your way through 18+ obstacles or just have fun with it.

Best of all you are in it to win it for Sterling Community Center!

All proceeds will benefit our programs and services, as well as members of our Resource Connection Program.
