Event Information
About the Angel Run
The Angel Run is a community "fun" raiser and family event. It brings members of Medfield together during a festive time of year to generate funds in support of Medfield families in need. In 2006, family and friends organized the run in remembrance of Natasha Domeshek. The Medfield Foundation Inc. (MFi) took up the holiday tradition in 2012. The majority of the proceeds will continue to support town residents through the Medfield Outreach Program and other MFi Initiatives.
The race is open to the public and all ages are encouraged to participate. The route is filled with decorations, carolers, water stations and other festive highlights. Upon finishing the race, runners will receive their run times and are invited to a post-run party at the school.

New This Year! Angel Run Shirt Pick-Up
Due to the large number of Angel Runners and the organization’s goal to reduce waste, the Angel Run commemorative shirts will not be delivered to each registered household. Instead, the Angel Run Team will make it very convenient for you to pick-up your shirts in advance of the race during designated times. More details with exact location and pick-up times will be announced soon and will be sent via email and posted to our social media channels!

The Angel Run course is a USATF certified 5K. See the map below.
Parking
There is plenty of parking at both Medfield High School and the attached Blake Middle School. For overflow parking, we suggest using Metacomet Park which is only a few blocks walk to the starting line.

All participants and spectators are invited to join us at the Angel Run post-race party in the Blake Middle School cafeteria where you can enjoy a variety of snacks, baked goods, cold water and hot drinks.
