Run to Your Health 5K
The Run to Your Health 5K is an athletic event held at A.C. Steere Park in Shreveport, Louisiana. Organized through a collaboration involving local nonprofit organizations, the event supports initiatives focused on community health, youth mentorship, and educational guidance for students in the Caddo and Bossier Parish areas.
Participants can choose from several participation options:
- 3.1 Miles Run/Healthwalk

The event features specific age groups for competition, including 8-13, 14-17, 18-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, and 70+. Overall male and female winners in the adult category (18 and over) and the kids category (17 and under) receive gift cards to a local sporting goods store. First place awards are also provided for male and female winners within each age group.
The course accommodates various needs, allowing strollers, wagons, baby joggers, and hand-pushed vehicles, provided they maintain a walking pace. Registered participants receive an event t-shirt while supplies last. A post-race gathering includes a health expo, music, and refreshments such as water and fruit. Activities for children, including inflatable jumpies, are also available at the site.
Registration is available for individuals or for teams of ten or more people. Packet pick-up is organized at a local sports shop in the days leading up to the race, with an additional option for pick-up at the park on the morning of the event.
