Runners gear up for Dillons Place 5K in Westlake

Athletes and fitness enthusiasts will converge at the Highland Software Campus this November for the annual Dillon’s Place 5K and Half Murph Challenge, an event blending endurance, community, and purpose.

The morning begins with the 5K Run or Walk at 9 am, followed by the Half Murph at 10:30 am. Race-day registration ends at 8:30 am. Participants can compete on-site or virtually, with bibs and times mailed to those joining remotely. Registration fees are currently $35. Discounts include 10% for veterans or active military members and 30% off for those entering both events. Registration may be completed through the RunSignUp listing.

Competitors will be recognized across multiple age divisions, beginning at 18 and under and continuing in ten-year increments through 60 and older. The top three male and female finishers overall will receive medals and event hats. All participants will collect a custom coin and commemorative T-shirt, while age-group champions will earn additional recognition.

Packet pickup takes place on Saturday, November 8th from 10 am to 1 pm at Franciscus Roofing, 959 Bassett Road in Westlake.
