Transfitnation is proudly sponsoring the Smithtown Running of the Bull 5K & 1K fundraiser, scheduled for Saturday, October 26, 2024 at 9:00AM & 8:45AM respectively. The race will start and finish at New York Avenue School, 26 New York Ave., Smithtown, NY. This locally run fundraiser is being organized by the Damianos Group and the Smithtown Chamber of Commerce to raise money for Angela’s House. Angela’s House coordinates complex home care and residential services for medically fragile children in Smithtown and the surrounding area. According to the event’s website, the race will feature a fast, flat 5k (3.1 mile) course through the scenic streets of Smithtown. Participants can expect post race amenities, awards, music and fun. The family friendly 1K fun run is perfect for all ages, and kids can wear their Halloween costumes!

The organizers are expecting a turnout of over 150 participants on Saturday, including 6 personal trainers from Transfitnation. “We have two marathon runners and several newer runners joining us on Saturday…this is going to be a fun event that benefits a charity local to Smithtown,” said Steve Dell’Amore, owner of Transfitnation. 

Transfitnation has recently published a beginner’s guide to running, which highlights the physical and mental benefits of running. The guide features expert advice on injury prevention from Transfitnation and insights on how to choose the right running shoes from Mike Petrina at the Smithtown Running Company. The Saville & Smithtown Running Company is in charge of the timing and scoring for the Running of the Bull fundraising event. “Everyone is a runner, whether you run a 6-minute mile or a 14-minute mile,” said Mike Petrina during an interview with Transfitnation.
