🐋 Main Street Donuts Shark Run 5K
Registration is now open for the Main Street Donuts Shark Run 5K! The Main Street Donuts Shark Run 5K will feature a 3.1 mile run through Matawan NJ on JUNE 14th at 8:30 am on Main Street in Matawan. This run will pay tribute to the events of the Matawan shark attacks that took place in July 1916. The Matawan Shark attacks led to the novel and movie “Jaws”.
