Get ready for an exhilarating day of fun and fitness at the Medal Madness 5K & 10K event taking place on Saturday, September 20, 2025, at the scenic Loyd H Roland Memorial Park in Akron, PA. This exciting race kicks off at 8:00 AM and offers runners two fantastic options: a 5K course, which participants will traverse twice, or a 10K route that takes you through the course four times. Both races are designed to be accessible, featuring a paved out-and-back layout, and all finishers will be rewarded with a themed medal to commemorate their achievement.

Don't forget to bring your best costume, as there's a fun contest with a prize for the most creative outfit! While costumes are not mandatory, they certainly add to the festive atmosphere of the event. Make sure to arrive early for packet pickup, which starts 30 minutes prior to the race. With a time limit of 2 hours for each race, this is the perfect opportunity for runners of all levels to challenge themselves, enjoy the company of fellow participants, and earn points towards the US Road Running Race Series. Join us for a memorable day filled with camaraderie, competition, and celebration!
