Rushsylvania Rockets 5K Run/Walk
The Rushsylvania Rockets 5K Run/Walk is an annual community event held in Rushsylvania, Ohio. Participants follow a course composed primarily of neighborhood roads, which includes a loop through the local cemetery. The route begins on Stewart Street, situated near the Rushsylvania United Methodist Church, and concludes at the Rushsylvania Village Park. An aid station providing water is located on Sandusky Street near the second mile of the out-and-back section of the course.
The event features the following distances:
- 5 km run or walk
- Kids Fun Run
The 5 km race utilizes chip timing to provide live results for all participants. Awards are presented to the top overall male and female finishers, as well as the top three male and female finishers in various age categories ranging from 12 and under to 60 and over. A separate Kids Fun Run takes place in the park near the finish line specifically for youth who are not participating in the main distance.
Packet pick-up is conducted inside the United Methodist Church on the day of the event. To receive a race shirt, participants must complete their registration by the designated July deadline; shirts are not guaranteed for late registrations.
