14th Annual MacQueen's Run for Your Life
The 14th edition of MacQueen's Run for Your Life takes place in Holland, Ohio, held at MacQueen Orchards. This event serves as the official opening of the seasonal holiday race series for the local area. Participants are encouraged to wear costumes during their runs.
The course begins in front of the orchards and guides runners through the nearby "apple streets" residential area. The route eventually returns to the orchard property, leading to a themed finish line on the grounds. Younger participants can take part in a run through the apple fields, where photo opportunities are available at the conclusion of their race.
Participants can choose from several distances and formats:
- 9.3 Miles: Known as the Challenge, involving multiple race segments.
- 10K: A standard 10-kilometer road race.
- 5K: A 5-kilometer road race.
- 0.6 Miles: A dedicated run for children through the orchard.
The event is presented by Phelan Orthodontics, a local orthodontic practice that provides services across two locations in the Toledo area. Registration for the various distances opens in early January and continues through late July, with the children's race registration remaining open until the start of the event.
