Houtzdale Days 5K Run/Walk

The Houtzdale Days Annual 5K Run/Walk and Fireman's Challenge is held in Houtzdale, Pennsylvania, as part of the local Houtzdale Days celebration. The event features a 5K run/walk on a slightly longer 3.3-mile course designed to be manageable for runners and walkers alike. A unique Fireman's Challenge follows the same course, requiring participants to wear or carry turnout gear, with a $250 prize awarded to the first finisher benefiting their chosen fire company or EMS.

Registration fees support the Houtzdale Fire Company, and medals are awarded to top male and female finishers in each category. The event fosters community spirit and honors local first responders. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
