Freedom Run 5K
Come celebrate the spirit of small-town America at the Freedom Run 5K in Springfield! This Fourth of July, gather your friends, family, and neighbors to walk, run, roll, or stroll through the heart of our community all while honoring the brave first responders of Washington County. This inaugural race isn’t just about the miles. It’s about community pride, patriotic spirit, and a little friendly competition. Rally your crew and compete for the Hometown Hero Award, where the winning team earns a donation to the charity of their choice. Every step you take also helps support our local first responders who serve and protect us every day. Whether you're chasing a PR or pushing a stroller, this family-friendly event is designed for everyone. Red, white, and YOU belong at the starting line.
