Welcome to the 6th Annual Jack Duffy 5K Power Run and 1M Walk! This event is held to celebrate the life of Jack Duffy, a brilliant and kind young man, Hatboro-Horsham graduate, Dartmouth student, entrepreneur, and accomplished runner whose purpose was “to serve, help, and empower others.” Proceeds benefit AFSP Greater Philadelphia.

The event takes place on Sunday, August 11, with virtual submissions accepted from August 9 - 12. The in-person run and walk will be held at the Hatboro-Horsham High School Stadium and continue along the Power Line Trail. On race day, check-in begins at 7:15 am and the race at 8:00 am. 

Online registration is open through August 10 and is discounted versus race day sign-up. A free t-shirt is available if registered by July 15. Awards will be given for both in-person and virtual events.

Event proceeds benefit AFSP Greater Philadelphia to support their mission of saving lives and bringing hope to those affected by suicide in our community (Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery, & Philadelphia counties.)

About Jack

A 2017 graduate of Hatboro-Horsham High School, Jack was President of the National Honor Society and an accomplished runner on the Cross Country and Track teams. After high school, he developed several website businesses to "serve, help, and empower others." He studied at Dartmouth College before taking time off to focus on his entrepreneurial efforts. But Jack’s brilliant mind was suffering from clinical depression, and just after his 20th birthday he died from suicide. He is immensely missed by his family and friends, who were touched by his kindness, sharp intellect, and unique insight.
