Blazing 5k and Fun Run

The Blazing 5k and Fun Run is scheduled for April 11, 2026, in Durant, Oklahoma. The event takes place at 110 N 2nd Ave, Durant 74701, and is presented as the 3rd Annual TOF Blazing Fun Run & 5K. It brings together runners, families, and community members to raise awareness and support for autism.

The event includes two distinct options:

5K: timed event for competitive runners
Fun Run: sensory friendly event for participants of varied abilities

Organizers describe the 5K as a timed race and the Fun Run as designed to be sensory friendly. Funds from the previous year were donated to the Texoma Swim Foundation; those funds supported summer scholarships and provided life saving swim lessons for children. The committee reports that ten autistic children received lessons and that a COTA attended angelfish training with support from those donations.

This year's event is part of the Choctaw Nation Promoting Active Communities Everywhere program, which emphasizes regular physical activity through walking or running. The event page lists professional timing for the race and contact options for race questions. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
