Run for Home - New Philadelphia

Run for Home Community Fitness Festival

Run for Home is a two day community fitness festival in New Philadelphia and Dover held April 10–11, 2027. Events take place around Tuscora Park and finish inside Woody Hayes Quaker Stadium in Tuscora Park. The half-marathon is run on a certified course through local streets and parks; the 2027 course is described as flatter and faster.

The program includes a family day with a one-mile fun run/walk, a kids' run with an obstacle element on a short course inside the park, and 5K and 10K races. The half-marathon offers individual and team relay options; the relay has three legs with exchange zones in Dover, split timing mats, and bus transportation to and from exchange zones.

Awards and participant benefits are part of multiple events: finisher medals for the 5K, 10K, relay, and half-marathon; age group awards and top overall awards; event shirts for half and relay participants and shirts for other races; live finish-line photos and results. Special competitive incentives include a $200 cash prize if the half-marathon course records are broken and a $500 award for a participant who wins both the half and the 10K. All proceeds benefit Habitat for Humanity East Central Ohio.
