Rainbow Run

The Rainbow Run is an annual athletic event held in Westerville, Ohio. The event takes place at the Westerville Sports Complex, located at 325 North Cleveland Ave. This 5K race is organized to support the Kaleidoscope Youth Center (KYC), an organization in Central Ohio that provides resources, mentoring, and support for LGBTQIA- youth.

Participants can choose between two primary event formats:

  • 5K Run/Walk - IN-PERSON
  • 5K Run/Walk - VIRTUAL

The in-person portion of the event occurs on a single day, while a virtual participation window is available for those unable to attend the physical location. The event includes logistical provisions such as early packet pickup and designated race day parking. Safety protocols and a course map are also provided for the participants.

The Kaleidoscope Youth Center has been active in Central Ohio since 1994 and is recognized as a significant organization dedicated to serving the regional LGBTQIA- youth community. Registered participants have the option to join or form teams, and volunteer opportunities are available for those who wish to assist with the event operations.
