Heroes Among Us 5k Run/Walk
About the race
The Heroes Among Us 5K Run/Walk is a community event hosted by the Hillsboro Department of Public Safety to celebrate the everyday heroes who make a difference in our lives, including police officers, firefighters, nurses, teachers, moms, dads, and children.
This family-friendly event is a fundraiser benefiting the Hillsboro Department of Public Safety's Shop With A Hero Program. Through this program, HDPS personnel partner with local children during the Christmas season and take them shopping for gifts, clothing, and other necessities.
The program helps families who may need a little extra support while creating positive relationships between first responders and the youth in our community.

City insight: Hillsboro
Hillsboro is a city and the county seat of Hill County in North Central Texas, located directly on Interstate 35 between Dallas, Fort Worth and Waco. Its population was 8,221 at the 2020 census, and it is the gateway to Lake Whitney and Lake Whitney State Park, about a 15-minute drive away. Summers are very hot and winters are mild, so spring and autumn are the best seasons to race.
