The North Andover Athletic Association (NAAA) is proud to host the 15th Annual Knights on the Run 5K and Knights in Training fundraiser for the NA High School athletic department. Over the years the race has grown, drawing hundreds of participants from towns throughout the Merrimack Valley and beyond. Runners and walkers of all ages are welcome to join together in support of NAHS Athletics.

This year’s race will be held on Saturday October 10th and includes a 5K route through scenic areas of town, beginning and ending at North Andover High School. We also host a Kids Run to encourage physical activity and promote school pride amongst the elementary school students.

Proceeds from the event enable us to both celebrate and support student athletes by annually awarding four college scholarships, and providing championship banners for the field house, upgrades to the athletic facilities, as well as funding special requests to benefit our student athletes and athletic programs. More information about NAAA is on our website, NAKnights.org.
