Bill Heideman Championships

The Bill Heideman Championships, hosted by the Summit Athletic Running Club, take place at Silver Creek Metro Park's cross country course in Barberton, Ohio. This event features three races: a 5K, a 2-mile, and a 1-mile run, designed to kick off the cross country season. Participants can register on race day, with packet pickup available at the tent behind the starting line.

Medals are awarded to top finishers in the 2-mile and 5K races, while ribbons are given to all 1-mile finishers. Pre-registered runners receive race T-shirts. Results are posted both at the event and online, creating a competitive yet community-focused atmosphere. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
