Dan Healy Memorial 5K 2026

The Dan Healy Memorial 5K is a 5 km run in Exeter, New Hampshire, beginning at the Dan R. Healy Outdoor Pool. It is an annual community race honoring Dan Healy, a U.S. Navy SEAL from Exeter who died in Afghanistan during Operation Red Wings. The race benefits the Dan Healy Foundation, directing funds to veterans, single-parent households on the Seacoast, and scholarships for students pursuing military or trade careers. Participants run alongside volunteers, sponsors, town staff, Exeter police, parks staff, and supporters like the New Hampshire Patriot Guard Riders, whose missions welcome veterans and non-veterans.
