FUCE 5K Run/Walk

It Takes A Borough (ITAB) is honored to host the annual FUCE 5K Family Fun Run/Walk in Mike Fuccile’s memory, continuing his legacy of giving back to the community he loved. On September 4, 2008, Mike Fuccile was murdered on his way to work in Jersey City where he served as a chief compliance officer for Merrill Lynch. Mike left behind his wife of ten years, Nancy, and their three children; Michael, Jack and Brooke. In 2009, The Fuccile Foundation was established to help local families impacted by tragedy and it continued to do so until the end of 2023 when it passed its torch to ITAB. ITAB, a nonprofit organization, is dedicated to encouraging community solidarity, and relies on financial contributions and tangible donations in order to provide meaningful, positive impacts on those within its community affected by tragedy or unforeseen circumstances.

We are continuing the 18th year of this race in downtown Metuchen. Please see below the preview of the certified course. We hope you'll continue this annual tradition with us!
