Everyday Hero 5K/10K Run

🏃‍♂️ Event Overview

YEAR 9! This fun and inclusive event celebrates the Everyday Hero!! We've been honored to have veterans, first responders, small business owners, kids, walkers, runners of all levels, and awesome volunteers who give their time for their community. That’s what this run is all about – celebrating the Everyday Hero. It's more than a race!

The 9th Annual Everyday Hero is a fun, family friendly 5k Run, 10K Run (new for 2025!) and 1 Mile Walk, dedicated to the memory of Jerome Rodio, an Oxford man whose great deeds and selfless acts helped bring together the community of Oxford, PA! More than a great citizen, Jerome was a fun, adventurous Dad & legendary Grandpop! Jerome enjoyed exploring with his kids and grandkids, and Nottingham Park was one of his favorite places to hike!

🌟 Beneficiaries

Proceeds benefit the Annual Veteran's Breakfast and the Oxford Chamber of Commerce, where Jerome was president at the time of his sudden passing in July, 2016. We're pretty sure he’d get a kick out of this fun race, inspired by his good deeds.

🍻 Post-Race Celebration

• Free Beer: Available to runners over 21 years old (and some appetizers!) at the OTE (Octoraro Hotel) in Oxford after our awards ceremony!
• Brunch Options: If beer and free apps aren't your thing, come out for our epic and fun event, then head over to Oxford and grab some brunch at the OTE or other delicious, local options!
• Activities: You could head off to beautiful Longwood Gardens or just buy a house in Oxford, who cares, just show up!
