What a day at the Cap City Half Marathon, Quarter Marathon, and 5K! Team RUNColumbus showed up in full force, and the results were nothing short of inspiring. Congratulations to all who raced — especially those who achieved personal records (PRs) and those who completed their very first half marathon! Your hard work and dedication were on full display.
A special shoutout to Alex and Andy, who had the honor of running the Half Marathon alongside a Team Heart & Sole Champion. You exemplify what it means to blend competition with community.
Thank you to our incredible volunteers — Keith, Jules, and Debra — who anchored the RUNColumbus tent with energy and enthusiasm. And a huge round of applause for the amazing team who stayed after the race to help break down and pack everything up. Events like this only happen smoothly because of people like you!
