Get your running shoes ready - RTA’s Run-A-Latke is back!

This year’s race will take place on Sunday, Dec. 14 at the Weinstein JCC.  Presented by the Habib Family, this race promises to be a morning full of fun, fitness, and community spirit. 

Last year, over 300 racers participated, and this year we expect even more! 

The Run-A-Latke brings together students, parents, alumni, and friends of RTA for an energetic start to the Chanukah holiday. Participants can choose between a 1-mile fun run and a 5K race, with plenty of cheering, music, and, of course, delicious latkes and donuts waiting at the finish line.

This family-friendly event will also feature activities for kids, Run-A-Latke t-shirts for sale, and prizes for the top winners in each race category. Whether you’re running, walking, or volunteering, there’s something for everyone to enjoy!  

Mark your calendars and spread the word!  RTA’s Run-A-Latke is the perfect way to kick off the holiday with joy, togetherness, and a little friendly competition!
