Lace up for the 3rd Annual Collinsville Hills 5K & Fun Run on Saturday, April 4, 2026, a vibrant, community-focused event set in charming downtown Collinsville, Oklahoma. Participants can choose between a challenging 5K or a delightful 1-mile Fun Run, both winding through scenic routes that live up to the race's name, featuring varied terrain and engaging "hills" that provide a satisfying test for all skill levels. The race kicks off from 113 S. 11th Street, with the Fun Run starting at 9:30 AM and the 5K at 10:00 AM.

This unique event is a highlight of the Collinsville Founders Day Celebration, offering a festive atmosphere with a strong sense of community spirit. What truly sets this race apart is its dog-friendly nature, encouraging runners to bring their canine companions along. The Fun Run features exciting "Fastest Paws" and "Best Pet Costume" contests, adding a playful element to the day, while dogs are also welcome to join their owners in the 5K. All finishers will receive a medal, and top performers in the 5K will be awarded 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place prizes across age and gender groups.

Beyond the exhilarating course and canine camaraderie, the Collinsville Hills 5K & Fun Run is a fundraising initiative by the Collinsville Chamber of Commerce and Refuge Community Center, with proceeds directly supporting Refuge Community Center's vital afterschool and summer camp programs for local students. Typical race day conditions in early April offer pleasant running weather, with historical highs around 71F and lows around 48F, and only a 14% chance of precipitation. Join fellow runners and their furry friends for a fantastic day of fitness, fun, and meaningful community support.
