Event Description

Be part of one of the signature events of Youghtoberfest Weekend with the Youghtoberfest 5K, a scenic point-to-point race through Connellsville. Point-to-point races are a rarity in our area, offering runners and walkers a unique course from start to finish instead of the traditional out-and-back or loop format.

Whether you're chasing a personal best, enjoying a morning with friends, or simply supporting a great cause, this event is for you. The race is open to both runners and walkers, with awards presented to the top three overall men and women in both the running and walking divisions.

Registration is just $25, and every entry helps make a difference. All proceeds from the race benefit Type 1 diabetes awareness and research, supporting organizations dedicated to improving the lives of those affected by T1D.

After crossing the finish line, stick around and enjoy everything Youghtoberfest Weekend has to offer at Yough River Brewing, including craft beer, food, live entertainment, and a fun community atmosphere.
