Run Across Connecticut

April 5 - April 6, 2025

Running for Minds, Bodies, & Great Futures



We are excited to announce that WBGC will be the beneficiary for the “Run Across Connecticut” (RACT), an inaugural running event taking place on Saturday, April 5th and Sunday, April 6th.


The event features Evan Titus, a 25-year-old accomplished ultramarathoner from Norwalk, CT, running for 150 consecutive miles diagonally across the state of Connecticut for an estimated 24-26 hours. Titus’ goal is to raise $15,000 for Wakeman Boys & Girls Club through donations and event sponsorships.

 

The Run Across CT will be more than twice as long as Titus’ previous longest run of 62 consecutive miles – a true test of willpower, preparation, and execution.
