Did you know that more than 125,000 people, including more than 34,000 children, struggle with hunger in New Hampshire? One of our amazing clients, the O’Halloran Group of Keller Williams Lakes and Mountains Realty, just kicked off their second annual Ultra1k to raise awareness and support for this important cause.

What is an Ultra1k?

It’s a one-kilometer, or 0.62 mile-long, race. You can walk it, jog it, run it, skip it, dance it…whatever! 

Why should I participate?

It’s fun and for a good cause! Plus, prizes will be awarded for a variety of things, including best obstacle course, fastest time, and slowest time (so channel your inner sloth!).

Where will the proceeds go?

Through their second annual Ultra1k, the O’Halloran Group is raising funds for three important food pantries in the Lake Sunapee region of New Hampshire. All proceeds raised from the Ultra1k will be split between these organizations. In 2020, the O’Halloran Group donated over $8,000 and their goal is to raise $15,000 this year!

• Kearsarge Lake Sunapee (KLS) Food Pantry
• Newport Food Pantry 
• Warner Connects NH Food Pantry

Learn more about the above food pantries here.

When and where will the Ultra1k take place?

This event will last the entire month of May, so you still have time to join the fun. For more information about the Ultra1k, to sponsor the event, or to participate in the Ultra1k, you can check out more information here, including suggested race routes (anyone who completes all four will be entered in a raffle to win a grand prize!).
