Run Through History 5K

The Run Through History is an annual event held at Lake View Cemetery in Cleveland, Ohio. The 15th edition of this event allows participants to traverse the grounds of a garden cemetery characterized by winding roads and hills. The courses provide a route through the historical and picturesque landscape of the site.

Participants can choose between two primary distances:

  • 5k run
  • 2 Mile walk or run

The event includes several amenities for those who register. All participants in both the 5k and the 2 Mile distances receive an event shirt, provided they register by the specified deadline for guarantees. Refreshments and special prizes are available during the morning activities.

For those participating in the 5k run, finisher medals are provided to all who complete the course. Additionally, performance-based medals are awarded to the top finishers across various age groups. Children aged 10 and under can participate for free, though registration is required for them to move through the course. The event utilizes an early registration period during which lower entry fees apply before the dates closer to the race. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
