4th Annual YMCA Run For The Hills 5K/2K 2026

YMCA Run For The Hills is a 5K and 2K held at Camp Triangle Hills of Crossroads YMCA in Crown Point, Indiana, during Fall Fest. The 5K begins first in the morning, followed by the 2K a few minutes later, ensuring families and shorter-distance runners share the same race setup as the longer event. The course is closed to traffic and winds through the hilly 144-acre camp property, offering a campground atmosphere rather than a road race through town. The 5K includes a broad age-group awards structure, along with Athena and Clydesdale divisions. Timing is managed with bib-based computerized results. Run For The Hills serves as the final event in the Crossroads YMCA Triple Crown Challenge, which also includes the Hub Run and Brickyard Run. Proceeds benefit the YMCA Income-Based Scholarship.
