Alger Heights Halloween 5k Overview
The Alger Heights Halloween 5k is a volunteer led, neighborhood focused 5k fun run. We are a 'small town in a big city' event that seeks to include all individuals and support the betterment of our local community. From runners seeking their next PR to walkers in costumes, all 5k participants are chip timed as they run through the scenic Alger Heights neighborhood during peak fall colors. We are excited to be back for our 13th edition on Saturday October 25th and invite you to come run, jog, walk, or stroll in your best costume!
