JH Memorial 5 Mile Trail Run

Event overview

The JH Memorial 5 Mile Trail Run is a 5-mile trail race scheduled for May 25, 2026 at Stoney Run County Park, 9230 E 142nd Ave, Hebron, IN 46341. The event is part of the Crazy Legs Race Series, which organizes non-pavement and pavement races in Northwest Indiana and holds events in parks or areas in Lake, Porter, and LaPorte counties. The series states an inclusive registration policy that allows transgender runners to register as the gender they identify with without documentation.

Course and logistics

The course will be marked with flags and arrow signs at major turns. There is an aid station offering water and Gatorade a little past mile 3; participants needing more fluids are advised to bring their own hydration. The route may include mud, insects, and a pond crossing near the end; a detour option avoids the pond and adds about 0.10 miles. Timing uses a manual method: finishers receive a timing stick that must be returned promptly. Overall male and female winners and the top three in each age group receive medals when their timing stick is turned in. All registrants receive a water bottle. Post-race water, Gatorade, and snacks will be available. Registration fees shown are $28.74 for the Jul 6 – Mar 31 period and $39.44 for Apr 1 – May 23.
