Heart Healthy 5K and Fun Walk

About the Event

The University of Findlay College of Pharmacy chapter of the American Pharmacists Association - Academy of Student Pharmacists (APhA-ASP) is hosting its 10th Annual Homecoming 5K and 3rd Annual 1.4 mile Fun Walk!

 

Join us for the Heart Healthy 5K and Fun Walk on Saturday October 11th, 2025 during the University of Findlay's Homecoming Weekend. A founding pillar within APhA-ASP is heart health, and a portion of the event proceeds will be donated to the American Heart Association. This year's Heart Healthy 5K and Fun Walk will feature a brand new path that starts and finishes at the Griffith Memorial Arch on Findlay's campus.

 

Registration/packet pick-up will begin at 7am on Saturday, October 11th in front of Old Main (1000 N Main St. Findlay, OH 45840) and will take place until 8:45 am. During this time (7-8:45am) students from the College of Pharmacy will be hosting tables with fun and educational activities for event participants to visit. After visiting all the student tables, you will be eligible for entry into this years raffle drawing with fun and exciting prizes!

 

After registration closes, all participants will gather at the start line for pre-race announcements. The race will begin at promptly 9am with professional timing provided by Run Toledo. After the race is done, the drawing of winners for the raffle prizes will begin. You must be present to win. 

 

At the conclusion of your 5K or Fun Walk, students from the University of Findlay Doctor of Physical Therapy Program will be offering FREE post-race physical therapy including injury screens, cupping, massage, and stretching!
