Celebrate Westlake, northern Ohio’s premier Five Mile Run, 3 Mile Walk and Kids Run, is back and better than ever in 2016.

This year’s Race Date is Sept. 3 at St. John Medical Center in Westlake.

Celebrate Westlake is extremely excited to welcome aboard Sibling Revelry Brewing as a sponsor. As a special treat to all runners and spectators, Sibling Revelry will be hosting Celebrate Westlake’s first ever Beer Garden!

5 Mile and 5K race registrants (21 + over) will receive one free ticket to the beer garden with paid registration.

Spectators will have the opportunity to purchase additional tickets, and all proceeds will be donated back to the race!

Other new Celebrate Westlake features? Since we’re going into fall, Celebrate Westlake thought a race jacket would be a great way to keep you running into October. So fleece jackets are being given to registrants this year! There are only 800 available, so register soon!
