Run For Home Community Fitness Festival

Saturday, Apr 6, 2024 at 8:00am

Tuscora Park
161 Tuscora Avenue Northwest

We've got an event for everyone from a fun and wacky kids' run to the half-marathon. Join us April 6 and 7 for two days of racing and family fun!

The 2024 Run for Home will feature a special solar eclipse theme. The Monday following the 2024 Run for Home weekend (April 8) a rare total eclipse of the sun will cut across a large part of Ohio. We’re celebrating with a special logo that will be featured on the race shirts, finisher medals, and awards. And the first 500 participants to pick-up their goody bag will find a pair of eclipse viewing glasses inside.
