WETHERSFIELD, Conn. (WTNH) — Runners laced up their shoes and hit the pavement on Sunday for the 24th annual Wethersfield Community Run at Standish Park.

'The two organizations have so much in common, born of two magnificent Wethersfield residents, Dick Keane and my little sister Laura Hart, that it made a lot of sense these foundations present places as well as programming for the Wethersfield community, and to see the turnout here today is proof positive that both organizations are having a positive impact,' Co-Founder, Chairman, and President, Laura's Garden Foundation Steve Kirsche Jr. said.
This year's event added a 3K race for parents running with strollers.
