RUN LIKE THE WIND 5K
Offshore wind is idling at the starting gate, ready to bring
clean energy to New Jersey homes and businesses. Help to get offshore wind
across the finish line.
The Sierra Club is hosting its first-ever "Run Like the
Wind" 5k. We're welcoming runners, walkers and clean energy lovers to come
out and support offshore wind. All net proceeds from the Run Like the Wind 5k
will be donated to the Seaside Heights Business Improvement District to help restore the Boardwalk.
Seaside and many other shore towns are at risk because of
climate disruption. Offshore wind will bring clean power to New Jersey and help
stimulate the economy of local shore communities.
