About the Irondequoit Professional Firefighters Annual Toys for Tots 5K
This race is organized by a local firefighters union and tied to a toy drive for the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation. Participants are encouraged to bring an unwrapped toy to donate at check-in. The event draws a range of paces, from people chasing a personal best to families out for a holiday morning together.
The post-race gathering at the finish line includes hot cocoa and holiday music, with the firefighters themselves on hand. Check-in opens well before the gun, and the start is in Irondequoit, on the northeast edge of Rochester.
