Hillsboro Old Settlers 4-mile Run/Walk 2025

🏃‍♂️ Race Overview

100% of proceeds benefit: Montgomery County Cancer Association.

🚦 Courses

Runners: This is a 4-mile race with a staggered start by age and gender designed to bunch runners for races to the finish. It is a four-mile run out & back starting from just east of Main Street heading towards the Hillsboro sports complex and country club looping back from the old lake park area. The course is slightly hilly and finishes with a short sprint to the finish after the toughest hill. There is one water station at approximately the one mile mark. The four-mile participants will pass it twice. While the Hillsboro police and auxiliary police will be watching various intersections, the course is not “closed”. The first ten finishers of the race are recognized as the top ten and get to pick prizes donated by the sponsors based on order of finish. The race is chip timed and ribbons will be given to the top three finishers in each division based on chip time.

Unique Format: This unique format requires the standard front runners race from behind and seasoned runners the boost they need to compete for placement. This race is a good tune up for the Abe’s Amble 10K, the last Sunday of the state fair.
