A great mix of suburban convenience and comfort, with rural charm and heritage, Deerfield has an extensive and versatile parks and roadway system that offers a huge variety of courses for short- and long-distance runners.  From beginners to 5Ks to trails to marathons and ultras, runners of all types and skill levels can find something to suit them.  Deerfield Township sponsors several charitable running events each year.  This site also has information about those events.
