The Summertime Run Club Series rolls on with Tour Stop #5—now hosted by the vibrant and social Short North Running Club at Jones Middle School Track in Upper Arlington! Join us on Thursday, July 3 at 6:00 p.m. for an evening of casual miles, community vibes, and giveaways you won’t want to miss.
We’ll head out for an easy-paced run or walk through the surrounding neighborhood—your pace, your distance—and return to the track to cool down and enjoy refreshments. This no-cost event is perfect for runners and walkers of all experience levels.
Note: We’ve moved this stop out of the Short North to avoid Red, White & Boom traffic and festivities—plenty of free parking and you’ll be home in time for fireworks!
Here’s what’s happening on July 3:
- The first 50 attendees will receive an exclusive commemorative cooling towel!
- Giveaway drawings throughout the evening include:
- A Jesse Owens 5K Bundle (registration + swag)
- Race registration for any M3S Sports event
- Race registration for the Blacklick Creek 5 Miler
Grand Prize Alert!
Everyone who attends a tour stop will be entered into a drawing at the end of the 9-week tour for two grand prize packages, each including:
- A $50 Columbus Running Company gift certificate
- 2026 race entries for:
Each tour stop you attend equals one entry into the grand prize drawing. The more you attend, the better your chances!
Let’s RUNColumbus TOGETHER.
