We are pleased to announce our partnership with race director and fellow RUNColumbus team member Kristin Gordon-Hock to bring you a bonus race on October 8. All event proceeds fund local patients battling cancer. Last year, the TWIG 1 Cancer Care Run raised nearly $10,000.

We know several runners will be in the final weeks of training for a full or half marathon. That’s why we’re offering an optional group run following the 5K to get in those extra training miles. Martens Park, where the race will be held, has miles of paths. Pair up with someone with a similar training pace to crank out those miles before heading home.

Please note:

  • The 5K will be scored per the Official Rules.
  • The race offers a two-mile walk option. That event will not be scored.
  • Those seeking the Road Race Warrior Award still only need to complete 12 races.
  • The race is offering a $5 discount to RUNColumbus team members.
