Event Information
About the Event
The 5th Annual City of Presidents 5k Run/Walk succeeds two longtime races in Quincy, The U.S. Marshall William F. Degan Memorial Road Race and the Officer Jamie Cochrane Memorial Road Race. The City of Quincy and the Quincy Public Schools present this event to promote health & wellness for our residents with proceeds benefiting programs for Quincy Public Schools.

We are also fortunate to again be working with the family of Emily Zarnoch. Emily was a beloved teacher at our Central Middle School, an avid runner, and longtime member of the Quincy Track Club. Thank you to the Zarnoch family for your support, and for sharing Emily’s life and legacy with us all.

Have an EZ run!
