HTFI 5K Run Race Description

LIVE/IN-PERSON RACE

Join us at our 15th Annual HTFI 5K Run on Saturday, April 27, 2024, at 9:00 AM in Overpeck County Park, Leonia, NJ.

It's a great way to build your fitness and enjoy the beautiful open space of Overpeck County Park in the midst of an urban landscape. Awards will be given to the top three overall finishers and top three age group finishers in each gender. Of course, we'll have some Pinoy (Filipino) treats and beverages to refresh yourself and to celebrate your great accomplishment! The live/in-person race is currently priced at $45.

For the live/in-person race, all finishers will get a commemorative shirt and medal. 

VIRTUAL RACE

There will also be a virtual option for those who cannot join us in person. You can run on a treadmill, in the park, jog around your neighborhood or walk around your house. Completion is based on an honor system and you track your own time. There will be  four options for our virtual race this year:

  • Run for Charity ($30, there will be no shirt nor medal)
  • Run for the Shirt ($50, includes shirt plus shipping cost)
  • Run for the Medal and Charity ($50, includes medal plus shipping cost)
  • Run for the Bling: Shirt and Medal ($60, includes shirt and medal plus shipping cost)

The event was originally organized in 2009 in Jersey City by Handang Tumulong, Foundation, Inc. (HTFI), a 501(c) (3) organization. This annual race has helped us raise funds in support of our mission of helping those affected by devastating natural calamities in the Philippines and other parts of the globe.

Thank you very much for your continued support.
