Run to Home Base

Ever dreamed about running across home plate at Fenway Park as the crowd cheers you on? Want to be a part of an unforgettable fundraising event that will help provide much needed services to local veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan?

Well, do we have the race for you! The Run to Home Base presented by Raytheon Technologies is a unique fundraising event through scenic Boston ending with the unforgettable experience of finishing the race by literally crossing home plate at historic Fenway Park. Friends and family can watch you from the stands at Fenway, with food, entertainment and fun family activities available in the concourses of America’s Most Beloved Ballpark.

The Run to Home Base presented by Raytheon Technologies will honor our nation’s heroic veterans and help raise much needed funds for the Red Sox Foundation and Massachusetts General Hospital Home Base Program. This outreach will serve the many veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan with combat stress and/or traumatic brain injury and their families.

Runners participating in the Run will have timed chips in their bibs recording their race time as they cross the finish line in front of Fenway’s iconic Green Monster. Registered runners will proceed along the warning track by the visitor’s dugout for a “photo finish” where each runner will be photographed crossing home plate. All registered runners are eligible for a free photo to be distributed via the web.
