Run For The Hills is a 2K and 5K running event held on a closed course that loops through the hilly 144-acre Camp Triangle Hills property of Crossroads YMCA in Crown Point, IN. The event is part of Crossroads YMCA's Fall Fest and offers onsite family activities after the races, including rock climbing, a high ropes course, archery, tractor rides, a petting zoo, fishing, and pumpkin launching. Parking is on site.

Distances:

The 5K uses computerized on-the-bib timing to produce official results. Age group awards are given to the top three male and female finishers in each age category. Divisions are provided for overall, masters (40 and over), and standard age groups; additional Athena and Clydesdale divisions are available with weight thresholds and are not eligible for Overall, Masters, or Age Group awards.

Entry fees are published for each distance with youth pricing for 10 and under and adult pricing for 11 and up; prices increase after September 10 and shirts are not guaranteed for registrations submitted after that date. Refunds are not issued; proceeds support the YMCA Income-Based Scholarship. Run For The Hills is included in the Triple Crown Challenge along with the Hub Run and the Brickyard Run.
