Ohio 529 CollegeAdvantage Redlegs Run - Great American Ball Park, June 6, 2026

The Ohio 529 CollegeAdvantage Redlegs Run presented by TriHealth is the 25th annual race held at Great American Ball Park. All proceeds benefit the Reds Community Fund. Entry fees are per person and are non-refundable and non-transferable; if the event is cancelled the fee is treated as a tax-deductible donation to the Reds Community Fund.

Distances:

• 10K (6.2 miles)
• 5K (3.1 miles)
• One Mile Run

The 5K and 10K courses start at Great American Ball Park, run through downtown Cincinnati, and finish inside the ballpark near home plate. The One Mile Run begins at the ballpark, turns around by Paycor Stadium, and finishes inside the ballpark. The Kids Fun Run takes place on the warning track inside the ballpark; participants enter through the First Star Fan Zone and proceed to the field via the stairs by Section 133.

All participants receive a custom race medal and race shirt. The 5K and 10K are electronically chip timed with live results; the One Mile and Kids Fun Run are not chip timed but finish line clocks will be used. Post-race activities occur in the First Star Fan Zone, and each participant receives one View Level ticket to the Monday, June 15 Reds vs. Mets home game.

Awards and packet pick-up: bibs are assigned first-come, first-served at packet pick-up located inside the main gates of Great American Ball Park. Top finishers in the 5K and 10K are honored on the field prior to the June 15 home game, and age-group winners must collect prizes the day of the race in the First Star Fan Zone.

Volunteer opportunities are available on race day; volunteers must be at least 16 years old, commit to a full shift, and may receive event shirt, breakfast, and two View Level tickets to the June 15 Reds vs. Mets game.
