Howell Melon Run
The Howell Melon Run, held annually in downtown Howell, Michigan, is a family-friendly event featuring multiple races including the Melon Roll for ages 2-5, the One in a Melon Mile, and the popular Howell Melon 5k Run. Participants can also opt for a combined Mile & 5k event. The 48th edition takes place on August 15, 2025, welcoming runners, walkers, and those using wheelchairs or assistive devices.
The race is chip-timed by the Michigan Running Foundation, with awards for overall and masters categories, plus finisher medals.
