Fitzy's Run, Halloween 5K community event
Fitzy's Run is an annual, family-oriented community event sponsored by Lauren's Foundation, held each year on the last Sunday of October in Berks County, Pennsylvania. The event combines a timed 5K run with additional activities aimed at families and children and raises funds for the foundation's charitable programs.
The event program includes:
- 5K run
- 1.5 mile walk
- Kid's Trick or Treat Dash, free and no registration required
Additional event features listed by the organizer include adult and children's costume contests, supervised child care for ages 2 and up, a health services fair with local providers and outreach programs, local food trucks, unique overall and age-group awards, and Halloween-themed long-sleeved cotton/poly event shirts available for purchase in unisex sizes with themed artwork.
Online registration pricing is tiered by date, with early discount levels and a regular registration fee period. Packet pick-up is available both virtually and in person at Fleet Feet in West Reading on the days before the event. The venue is the West Reading Playground at 505 Sycamore Road, West Reading, Pennsylvania, with event parking on nearby streets and a request to observe parking regulations.
Proceeds support Lauren's Foundation funds that aid local high school seniors, families with seriously ill children, brain tumor research and organ donation awareness. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
