Run To Feed The Hungry
Run To Feed The Hungry is a charity road race in Columbus, Ohio, with multiple distances and a children’s fun run. Proceeds support local Central Ohio food pantries through the Mid-Ohio Food Collective. The event includes both in-person and virtual participation options.
All races start and finish at the same line on a paved trail at Scioto Audubon Metro Park (500 Maier Pl, Columbus, OH 43215). The event is chip timed with instant results and a visible bib requirement for accurate timing. Timing ends when the course closes after 3.5 hours for the half marathon; participants who cannot finish within that window may move to a shorter distance.
Distances offered:
- Half Marathon (13.1 miles)
- 10K (6.2 miles)
- 5K (3.1 miles)
- 1 Mile
- Kids Fun Run (0.25 miles, about 400 meters)
Participants receive a selectable giveaway item (hat options, tutu, shirt, or hoodie), a custom race bib, and a finishers medal for the 1 mile, 5K, 10K and half marathon. Additional on-course refreshments and snacks are provided. There is no early packet pickup; race day packet pickup is at Scioto Audubon Metro Park. Parking at the park is free.
The event allows dogs on leash, permits strollers, and permits personal audio devices though using them is not recommended for safety. Age-group results are posted but no awards ceremony is held beyond finishers medals. Virtual racers receive mailed swag and can submit times online through year end.
