Get Fired Up for First Responders 5K

The First Responders 5K is a small-town 5K run/walk in Lexington, Indiana, starting and finishing at the Lexington Community Ballpark. The Lexington Volunteer Fire Department hosts it during Old Settlers’ Days, with an early morning start and a low entry fee that includes an event T-shirt. The course uses Mulberry Street, keeping the race close to the festival setting rather than sending runners far out of town. Proceeds and donations support the Lexington Volunteer Fire Department and its community. Runners can stay afterward for the Old Settlers’ Days parade and festival, a long-running local tradition.
