Headless Horseman 5K
About this race
The Headless Horseman 5K is BACK and SPOOKIER than ever! This dusk event will be in-person and kick-off at State and Clinton Streets in beautiful Downtown Howell. Costumed participants will wind their way through the historic neighborhoods and through Scofield City Park. Participants will receive a long-sleeved 50/50 blend shirt if registered by the end of the day on September 27th.
Early Packet Pick up will take place Oct. 14th -16th at the Oceola Community Center 1661 N. Latson Rd. Howell MI 48843 during normal business hours.
Walkers, strollers, assistive devices, and dogs on 6ft leashes are welcome.
Please note that funds from this program help to cover not only costs incurred from the program itself but also help to make the Legend of Sleepy Howell possible. This longstanding community event offers a fun and safe trick-or-treating experience and helps especially those kids living in rural areas. Thank you for your support!

Running
17 Mile Graveyard Run
Do you have what it takes to complete the Headless Horseman GRAVEYARD Challenge this October? You’ll play the part of Ichabod Crane as you run for your life away from the horrible Headless Horseman. The chase/course will include 5 of Howell’s most prominent cemeteries through Marion Township, City of Howell, and Oceola Township, equaling 17 total miles. Participants will not run the literal route between the cemeteries but are encouraged to chip away at the 17 mile total during the two week event by running, walking, biking, etc. A link will be sent out to participants to log progress through Runsignup and fun additional challenges will be included. Deadline to register is Thursday, Oct 1. For this program all shirts will be shipped to the participant unless the “pick up” option is selected during registration. T-shirt pick up will be at the Bennett Rec Center at 925 W Grand River, Howell on Oct 16 from 4-8pm. Shipped shirts will also be sent out Oct 16.
